Photos ~ Pillars of Progress

Whether passing by on my Vespa or bike I'm always impressed with the scale of the project going on to get traffic across the Nalley Valley. The human comparison is diminished when dwarfed by the pre-relic pillars of re-bar and concrete that currently hold up nothing but tower in three's above Center St. and South Tacoma Way. Their progress is amazingly swift with new pillars seeming to go up every week but, yesterday, I stopped for a moment to capture the progress. Funny, but seeing such a massive new car-centric project doesn't make me feel so bad for a few bike lanes going in here and there. As impressive as large scale projects like this are, I think we cater to cars plenty.

Photos ~ Frost Park Chalk Off Season 2, Episode 20

No rain nor thunderbumpers today out at Frost Park but the fear was there. The crowds were thin thinking the heavens might open up and the chalkers were quick paced hoping to finish before being washed away. Instead, a warm sun shined with a slight breeze and all was well. There aren't many entries this week but the competition is fierce among those brave enough to show. Enjoy and don't forget to vote for your fav!
