I am joining Jacqueline Oby-Ikocha from A Cooking Pot and Twisted Tales for her series, “Echoes of My Neighbourhood,” where she challenges us all to share a photo of bits and pieces of wherever you are at any point in time.
It’s time to see bits and pieces of Seattle!!
Above: The Columbia Tower… currently the 2nd tallest building on the West Coast and tallest in the State of Washington.
Above: The Clock Tower in front of Century Link Field, home of the Seattle Seahawks and the Seattle Sounders.
I live about 35 miles away from the hustle and bustle of Seattle, but it sure is fun to go visit every now and again!
Have a great weekend!! Who’s got a race coming up??
First off, I have a fond feeling about Seattle though I haven’t been there and it is because of ‘Sleepless in Seattle’ and the pictures show a lovely city 🙂

Nice photos! My MIL & SIL are in Bellevue. We don’t actually get into Seattle a lot when we’re visiting, but occasionally. And we visited the first time before they moved there.
No racing. No running other than the treadmill! We are in the deep freeze this weekend; the local running club has already canceled the winter marathon that was slated for sunday.

Bellevue is beautiful too! I love going to spend a day there!! Ewww, a deep freeze! Yuck!! Well, we hate it, but at least we have the dreaded mill to keep us going!!! Have a great weekend, and try to stay warm!!

Actually I ran outside for my long run today. It was about 10F when I started! This weekend will be far colder & I’ll be on the treadmill Sunday.
Have a great weekend!

Thankfully it’s supposed to start getting warmer after this weekend again.
Sometimes we’re stuck in this kind of weather for a week or two!

I love Seattle! Beautiful pictures! Love that the city is so accessible to amazing national parks, and the location is gorgeous right on Puget Sound! I am dying to go back one day (guess I have to hit it up WA state again in my 50 marathon quest!). Have a great weekend!

Must be nice to live close to such a neat city… But knowing myself, if it’s not within 20 minutes, I’m less likely to go on a whim… Still!
And we know the answer to your last question 😉

Oh Seattle looks like a lovely city!!! I’ve always wanted to visit. For some reason Grey’s Anatomy sparked that curiosity for Seattle…as weird as that may seem lol. It seems like a really awesome place. Just rainy all the time though.

Actually, if you come visit from July to September, you won’t get an ounce of rain!! So WHEN you come visit, make it during those months, 😀
