North of downtown Seattle, across Lake Union is Gasworks Park. The place is pretty cool. The was a place where gas and oil were refined and separated. This is the main boiler.<\/p>\n

What’s cool is that someone had the sense to preserve all this old machinery and turn it into a park. It is a great place to walk around and take pictures. I bet you could get some cool pictures here in the evening. (I don’t remember when this park closes)<\/p>\n

There is a section of the park where there is a bunch of smaller equipment that you can actually touch. Not supposed to climb on it (there is actually a park with newer stuff kids can climb on), but kids could come and get a close look and actually touch some of the old machinery.<\/p>\n

There is also a big hill you can climb up that affords a great view of Lake Union, gives a different vantage point for the machinery, and allows you to get a great shot of the city. On this day unfortunately it was a little hazy and the sky was kind of grey. It was hard to coax anything out of this sky, but this is what I got.<\/p>\n

When you don’t have many second chances with weather, you have to take what you get. After this I walked back up the hill to catch the bus. On the way back, I stopped in to see Chase Jarvis<\/a>. As luck would have it, he was in, and just waiting for a model to get makeup put on. I got to have a quick chat with him and some of his staff. Chase and the rest of them are really nice. It was fun to “drop in” for a visit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
