My FAM… @ 1936 in Renton, Washington. This is on Tobin Ave behind (just north of) Renton High School. My Grandpa George built this house. (LtoR): Louise Fabre, Dad playing the accordion, Grandma Pauline, Uncle Georgie (dad’s older brother), Grandpa George, and his brother Jules, and Great Grandma Celine Boulanger Delaurenti in front.

Driving up Lake Washington Blvd on my way to University Village to teach a class at the Microsoft Store, 2014. Having been a regular commuter to Seattle from Renton and tired of the (I-5 Freeway traffic) I rediscovered the back roads and enjoyed this drive through many seasons.

Leaving the barbershop this October 1st afternoon I caught this little cutie old MG across the street in downtown Renton.

So many thoughts come to mind.. The Fountain of Hope is closed and boarded up yet there’s that tree blossoming in all its Spring glory.

Love this sky from a few days ago.
