So you're sayin' there's a chance, huh !?@winmod21
Actually, now would be the time to visit since I can use my handicap parking pass and save a few steps! They probably do have a free day or two but then the crowds would be nuts. Actually, I can afford it on my nice fixed income. It might be a good test of my knee walking around. I need a map and see if I can figure out distances. It is actually within walking distance of my house if I were up to snuff. It is between 1 and 1 1/4 mile one way from home.

Not been that far south in a while. Years ago did the West Seattle Bridge. Oh, wait, I've done the UPPER and lower. The Upper when a friend and I snuck on it before it officially opened. The lower bridge on a jaunt to a friend's house in West Seattle. I use to commute to Renton by bike mainly along Lake Washington Blvd and Rainier Ave but on occasion we would vary the route and take Airport Way. But still that was more than a while ago.View attachment 361979

Not sure if the photographer used a 'Fold' camera, or not, but I thought the picture was cool, and for no other reason than I'm trying to remember were Pier No.1 is located , I decided to post it. Hope you don't mind.
Anyways, it must be down by the huge container cranes & shipping area, huh?
Have your biking ambulations taken you that far south?
Woooooooo-wee. Boy, that was some miiiighty long a-communtin' and a-ridin'!Not been that far south in a while. Years ago did the West Seattle Bridge. Oh, wait, I've done the UPPER and lower.

Lovely flowers.
The shrimp omelet is my way of salvaging Whole Foods shrimp if I've not depleted them in shrimp cocktails. As they start to go "off" I chop them, figuring the heat will deal with the WHATEVERS in the omelet making. With variations on the theme. (see, that's my bacteriologist background dealing the the slime mold or bacteria that affects them after x number of days). Probably still somewhat food poisoning risky but...@FF22
I've never tasted a shrimp omelette!
When I saw the shrimp on the cutting board pic, I said, "Hmm-uh!" ...
Looks like it was a very enjoyable low-tide walk yesterday. Nice pics.
This morning on CBS Saturday Morning, there was a story about a Chilean guy who walks his local Chilean beaches sweeping a metal detector wand in front off him as he walks. He claims, in his online posts, to find an average of $200 a week!
