Seattle in December

I do not know any of the people posing, and it is tough to get a picture without people here, although it adds a sense of awe.

I feel as though I have really visited Seattle, now that I have personally had my picture taken with the The Fremont Troll  

Alyssa and Dusty led us on a fine sightseeing jaunt.  It was quite different as they drive a zippy little Scion, opposed to our quad-cab-duely-diesel, which is clearly the wrong vehicle for Seattle. We have apologized to our rear wheels and curbs MANY times while driving in the city in spite of Dave's incredible NASCAR-like driving skills. (Dave: "As long as we're turning left...")

Winter in Seattle is not known for its warm sunny days, but on this day we were able to get a few  photos of Mount Rainier and the Fremont Troll, with the added bonus of having excellent tour guides!  Thanks, kids, for a memorable day.
