A Day on the Seattle Waterfront

A cool misty morning on the water of Elliott Bay in Seattle provides a view of Mount Rainier rising out of the fog like a dream. The wind beat against us as we leaned forward urging the huge ferry forward through the green water. Like thirsty dogs we sniffed the sea scented air willing our bodies to remember every detail. The clouds parted and the sun came out. A rainbow appeared over the seaport of Seattle as a group of laughing people floated past us in their sailboat enjoying the warm sunlight. It was a moment to remember.

Sunday Gallery - Seattle Evening Romance

One wondrous evening in Seattle I was totally enchanted. Going from a land of mountains and dry sage in Colorado to the seascape of the Pacific Northwest is a dramatic change to the senses; with the gently falling rain, the ocean's salty scent, and the sailboats floating lazily like giant birds on a giant pond. We stood mesmerized watching the ships for quite some time and then decided to have dinner on the waterfront deck of our hotel. The breeze was a little chilly but undaunted we "layered up" as we say in the mountains, unwilling to give up our intoxication with the waterscape. I caught our reflection in the window and smiled. Afterward, we walked hand in hand along the waterfront as the sun slowly descended into the water of the sea.
