STRICTLY SEATTLE

Picture
We are on day three of our Seattle sojourn. What a fun city! We've been using public transportation to get from our campground in Kent and it couldn't be more convenient.

YES!!!
​As seen in the Capital Hill district.

We logged a lot of miles just exploring the various neighborhoods and sampling the food, art and culture.

Picture
On Sunday we took the monorail to Seattle Center tourist headquarters... The museum of popular culture had a really cool wearable art exhibit.

Picture
A sketch by Jimi Hendrix
Picture
And a crazy guitar sculpture called "If 6 was 9" that played actual music using selinoid activated guitar picks.
Picture
The Chihuly Glass Garden was next up and it was impressive.

Picture
We also took a quick trip to The Henry Gallery @ University of Washington to see a retrospective of Senga Nengudi's work.
Picture
Picture
She is an LA based sculptor and dancer who in the 1970's -80's did work with improvisational dance, musicians and filmmakers. Now she has moved on to meditational video installations. Interesting work that harkened to a time.
Picture
We also stumbled into a magnificent reading room at the University library.
Picture
On our last day in Seattle we took the ferry to Bainbridge Island to check out the island life. We had a lovely lunch in a French restaurant and walked through some residential areas. It was a pleasant afternoon but now it is time to bid Seattle farewell and get ready for the Olympic Peninsula.

The party is over for now- watch for a new blog next fall!!
