Ballard Avenue: January 2009
http://ballardavenue.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
You want some a capella harmony? Well, you can't go wrong with three Welshmen. Monday, January 05, 2009. Photo by Ballard Avenue. Back from the beach, Carkeek Park is the Land of the Bigleaf Maple. How big is that leaf? That's a size 6 shoe. Saturday, January 03, 2009. Some more cold feet. Photo by Ballard Avenue. We caught these fellows trying to catch a salmon or two the same day we saw the kayakers. Maybe we should add four more cold feet to the day's total. Friday, January 02, 2009. Spill it, sister.

Ballard Avenue: Danny Boy

You want some a capella harmony? Well, you can't go wrong with three Welshmen. Monday, January 05, 2009. Beautifully done. One of the best I've heard. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ballard was settled by Scandinavians in the late 19th-century. While we weren't part of the original migration, we've lived here a long time and still like it. View my complete profile.

Ballard Avenue: While we were out: Birds do it (sorta)
http://ballardavenue.blogspot.com/2010/01/while-we-were-out-birds-do-it-sorta.html
While we were out: Birds do it (sorta). Photo by Ballard Avenue. Last spring a pair of osprey. Built a nest on the south tower of the Salmon Bay railroad bridge. They didn't seem to mind the noisy trains and appreciated the salmon run in the Ship Canal below. We watched to see if there would be little bundles of osprey joy in the summer, but no such luck. They flew off elsewhere in the fall. Monday, January 04, 2010. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. You're doing it wrong.

Ballard Avenue: August 2008
http://ballardavenue.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Photo by Ballard Avenue. Or imperfect timing, depending on how one looks at such things. I had to stop for this Union Pacific freight train in Napavine, Washington, on a recent lovely afternoon. Sunday, August 31, 2008. Photo by Ballard Avenue. This sign might be all that's left of the real estate firm of Tiedeman and Twigg. I don't know anything about them, but that six digit phone number tells you it was a long time ago, and 5413 Ballard Avenue is now a parking lot. Friday, August 29, 2008. You see her...

Ballard Avenue: September 2008

Photo by Ballard Avenue. For the time being, the owners ask all those passing by to step lightly. Monday, September 29, 2008. Oscar Peterson and Count Basie—just a couple of old pals messing around. Sunday, September 28, 2008. Photo by Ballard Avenue. Even the cats on Sunset Hill don't like the idea of bailing out the crooked banks. Saturday, September 27, 2008. Photo by Ballard Avenue. Mom's handed down her KitchenAid. Dreadnought to us, and boy, does it make some bitchin' cookies! Of the many that crui...

Ballard Avenue: December 2008
http://ballardavenue.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
The barbershop quartet Premiere hung up their tight chords in 2006, but got back together in 2008 for a tribute to their mentor, Freddie King. They said goodbye with this very nice performance of Auld Lang Syne. Happy New Year to you all. Wednesday, December 31, 2008. Photo by Ballard Avenue. We saw these kayakers off Carkeek Park in early December. Sea kayakers are pretty hardcore. These must be the fourteen coldest feet south of Nome. Wednesday, December 31, 2008. The house where the Fiats used to rust.

Ballard Avenue: November 2008
http://ballardavenue.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
First Sunday in Advent. Coventry Carol, by AcaBella. Sunday, November 30, 2008. There is Ballard content in the works, but in the meantime, have a moment with this Viking accordionist somehow gone astray on Haight St. in San Francisco. Sunday, November 16, 2008. The stuff of miracles. It really does work miracles, that WD-40. Would that we could get rid of the rest of the toxic legacy of the past eight years so easily. Wednesday, November 12, 2008. Flags at St. Edward State Park. Fernand Goux, 108, France.
