Hiram M. Chittenden locks

On this blustery NW day we visited the Ballard Locks (Hiram M. Chittenden). This places holds much nostalgia for me as I used to walk my bike through there Monday-Friday on my way to work. I've seen many boats, kayaks, vessels, seals, salmon, interesting people and learned a life lesson (never point at people) and I've also ridden my mountain bike on the hillside, picnicked, listened to a Sousa band in the summer and the list goes on. A real treat to take my sons there today and see some Chinook Salmon mosseing their way through the fish ladder.

The rest of the day was "wasted" away on a few wrong turns (my driving errors) and really lame traffic on I5.

Buenos Noches!
