Hair of the Goat

We made it safely to the Emerald City this afternoon, what Seattle has been nicknamed since the early 80’s. The first thing we did after checking into our funky U-District flat was to hunt for something to eat.

Following the tantalizing aroma to Garam Masala, an “exotic Indian cuisine” restaurant on University Way, what else could we order but goat curry? It was mighty delicious. And this sign, also recently spotted, is pretty funny in light of our controversial lunch choice.

From the Ave we met up with friends and they took us to Ivar’s on Lake Union where we sat outside near the water, sipping coffee, catching up and watching the boats sail by. Some days I love my job.

The weather turned on the charm and behaved perfectly, bringing out the smiles in everyone we passed in this heavily populated area of what is also known as “Rainy City.” Hey, I thought that was Eugene!
