Seattle is a bit rainy today.
This photo was taken while I was driving to lunch in Tukwila. If you’re wondering why I would drive my Hyundai Accent (heretofore known as ‘the ultimate Korean driving machine’) into this, it’s because at first it was only about a foot deep– but I didn’t expect the lake to continue for 2 blocks.
In the picture you can see the water level creeping past my headlights, and that wasn’t even the deepest point. You see the truck down the road? It drove past me and created such a wave that the car actually moved an inch or two. Pretty scary because I was in the middle of the semi and that disabled car. If I would’ve crashed into the car, I would’ve had to admit to the officer that I had no boating license…
So now you may be wondering why I was out sailing. I was getting lunch. That’s it. Not even a good reason. There was perfectly good lunch that was not under water too.

Nice Bry- love the afternoon sail to lunch. Almost reminiscent of Italy.
