“There will be a rain dance Friday night, weather permitting.” (-George Carlin)

Rain and Seattle go hand in hand. Everyone knows this. I have visited this city a number of times, and I’ve been so fortunate that for at least part of every trip here, I’ve had dry moments.

Yesterday, I browsed around the Public Market at Pike Place.

It’s always a fun spot, with the fishmongers throwing fish,

The flower stalls bursting forth with color and scent,

The interesting characters,

And street musicians,

And the mounds of fresh produce in colors of the rainbow…

It’s a beautiful city, full of life and I always love visiting. Rain did come, but not ‘til after I got a chance to see it all for a while…

“The best thing one can do when it’s raining is to let it rain.” (-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow)
