Most museums in Seattle allow free visits on the first Thursday of the
month. Greg, Lea and I went to the SAM
today. They was an interim exhibit of
Pacific NW native art consisting of carved wooden masks, a few totem poles and
such. I have been wanting to make it to
the free first Thursday for years. Today
we made it. Figured out the origins of
the Seahawk logo after seeing our 50th mask of that ilk…
Lea was had problems with chronic pains flaring up so we did not stay
long. We went across the street to the
Pike Market Brewery and had lunch. A
couple next to us was from North Carolina.
They were certainly ahead of the curve on tourist season at the Market! She was a nurse practitioner that liked
research and travel. They traveled the
country going to medical conferences with a touristy timeline. Nice people.
I am grateful for free visits to nice museums, friends to do things
with, good restaurants and dry sunny (albeit it freezing cold 32°) days.
