Seattle Equivalent

My sister Sparkle sent me this photo in an e-mail, saying these are the Seattle equivalent to the perky electric palm trees Adventureman so loves. Thank you, Sparkle!

They are from a Seattle blog where they post a new photo of Seattle every day: Seattle Daily Blog Spot. Right now, they have some Valentine’s Day photos, interesting, and not what you would expect.

This is the photo that inspired Sparkle:

I have to admit, these are pretty cool. Do I want them in my yard? I think not. 🙂

  2. They are cool, but if I were your neighbor I think I would prefer a tasteful pink flamingo, especially at night 🙂

  9. There is an annual rooftop festival in Portland (Seattle’s southern cousin in Oregon)at some hotels that is a “Welcome Aliens” party in case the ETs want to join them. Maybe Seattle is just lighting the way?!?
