Beth at White Castle Before actually heading out to Seattle, Beth had to show me her digs. She had worked here for two years... |
Rainbow A nice full-sky rainbow; Beth claims people reported seeing it back in C-U. |
Simone's Lemonade Stand Beth's cousin runs one of these every now and then. The lemonade was quite good. (And I am embarassed to say that this was the only shot of the family I got...bad Tim!) |
Beth and Cat Cat! (I don't remember which one fhis was...) |
|
|
|
|

|
Cat Either Jessie or Chester. |
Cat, II He was at least a cute cat. |
Beth I actually like this shot a lot. She's even wearing a shirt I got her the week before in Virginia! |
Tim Also Beth's first shot with my camera. |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Tim, II She really liked my camera. |
More Cat I like taking pictures of cats. |
Across the Street This gives a good idea of the neighbourhood feel... |
Beth, II If you're wondering, we're waiting for my brother to arrive to take us to dinner. |
|
|
|
|

|
Regal Cat The cat really does look *right* here. |
More Regality Come on, Danny... |
Danny Arrives Finally! (Mapquest had lied to him and sent him on a convoluted path.) |
Danny That's my little brother. |
|
|
|

|
Aunt Susan's Danny had to see the place; he enjoyed all the pictures. |
View from Danny's Place It's actually our old college friend Chris' place. This is the second story view. There's a third story. |
Danny and Beth Don't grow too attached to that facial hair of Danny's. Like Beth did. |
Flowers Dad's horticultural leanings have taughed me to always take pictures of gardens. Well fine, not always. Sometimes. |
|
|
|
|

|
View from Danny's Place, II Third story this time. It's not bad... |
View from Danny's Place, III It makes me want more lenses, though. |
Danny Again This is the room Danny lived in for the summer. He looks pretty proud, neh? |
Both Cats In the dark, you can tell how alike they look (and why I'm so poor at labelling them). |
|
|

|
Stretching I want a cat, if you can't tell. |
Waiting Around If I could just see the nametag... |
Seattle Art Museum Beth hated this shot. Too bad; it's an amusing way to start Day 2... |
Seattle Art Museum, II This wasn't much better. But I enjoy cheesy posing... |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Fountain and Beth Not the best framing; I'm still getting used to the new camera. |
Fountain and Beth, II Better. Acceptable, anyway. |
Tim in Seattle I look pretty content, actually. |
Tim in Seattle, II Beth was really enjoying the camera by this time... |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Beth and Statue Still annoyed at me... |
Weird Fountain Just outside the aquarium, which is where the next shots are. |
Trip to Victoria Beth wanted to go, but we didn't have our passports. |
Sci Fi Museum Half the reason I wanted to go to Seattle... |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Sci Fi Museum, II They didn't allow cameras. Damn them. (It was cool if you liked sci-fi; if you don't, just avoid it.) |
Fancy Fountain This is what Beth remembered from Seattle. |
Fancy Fountain, II Lots of kids were playing in it. |
Fancy Fountain, III The game was "run up and touch the thing before the water hits you". |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Fancy Fountain, IV The kids generally lost. But it was fun to watch. |
Fancy Fountain, V Note that this is also the thing that *I* remember from Seattle as a kid. |
Fancy Fountain, VI It's a cool fountain. |
Fancy Fountain, VII And I used to be one of those kids... |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Farmer's Market I had to get at least one shot of Pike's Place. It's a cool place... |
Back to Cats It always comes back to cats with me. |
Back to Cats, II The last shot of the cats we got before we left. |
Mammus Clouds As we started to head back to Champaign from Chicago, we saw a pretty impressive set of clouds... |
|
|
|
|||
|
Mammus Clouds, II Of course, they apprently portended a huge storm back in C-U, but we missed it so that's okay. |
Mammus Clouds, III I should have gotten a lot more pictures than this. They were *cool*. |
Beth and Mom Aww... |
