Issaquah and Seattle

have you ridden the bus in to Seattle from Issaquah? it's amazing how very different it can be one day to the next. yesterday the p&r lot was full so I parked in a space of an office a few blocks away, under a sign warning of towing. we stopped to pick up passengers from a stranded coach along I-90 and were packed in so tightly it was difficult to breathe. (my car was still there after work, much prayer later). today there was plenty of parking, a leisurely ride in and a completely different morning. with so much change in the air, it's interesting to notice those things that are the same, and I just haven't noticed. yesterday seemed right to walk across town to get to work, and it was unbelievable to me how active the city was, how tall the buildings were, how I could walk for a mile along the waterfront to get to work, etc. I hesitate to call it a renaissance, but I like Seattle on foot in the morning.

Comments:
I've ridden the bus in Bellingham. Does that count? Here's to many more enjoyable experiences in Seattle.
 
welcome to my world, i'm not sure there is anything better than working in the city (that is if you have to work somewhere).
