Eve and I were on a nice walk down by Lake Washington where I was taking some pictures (see photo of the week). As we were walking along the beach we passed a man with a fishing pole who brightly said "beautiful day isn't it!?" "Um, yeah" I responded. It was actually quite gloomy and shortly thereafter started to rain. Anyway, the man went out on the dock and started fishing so I thought I would snap some photos. After a couple of shots he saw me and I asked if it was alright. He said it was but to wait. At this point he took off his orange puffy vest to reveal a much worn rainbow colored vest - 1. You've got to love Seattle.
1 - the rainbow is a self-adopted symbol of the gay community. There is "Double Rainbow" ice cream at our local grocery store with a subtitle of "San Fransisco's Official Ice Cream."
Raised in a small South Dakota mining town where he learned the value of a sturdy pickaxe and native tubers, Scott is a man's man who knows the meaning of the word testosterone. Apart from devouring freshly slain beasts of the forest, Scott enjoys sharpening his tools, lifting heavy objects, and throwing a ball at a hoop suspended ten feet off of the ground. He also enjoys Romantic Era poetry and Italian cooking.

Hey Rebekah, awesome pictures, cute blog! It's always fun to see what's going on in the arboretum since I hardly ever go there!

Okay, I just read the rainbow entry. Yes ... you just have to love Seattle. I'll bet you left after your encounter! Still, cute pictures.
