Uh, hello?

28 April 2008

greenlake-no-parking_med.jpgWent for a walk around Greenlake this past weekend and came across something I had to photograph. Some idiot from the city put up no parking signs right on the most travelled path in all of Seattle! (See the orange circle in the photo.) Uh, hello… who would park there? Nobody! You can’t even get a car there unless you drive over a curb. But I see their reasoning: the last guy who tried to park there knocked over that tree.

Then, as I downloaded the photo from my camera for this post, I realized I’d unintentionally captured another stupid mistake! Some lady looked out her window in the morning and thought, “wow, look at all the sunshine and blue sky. Forecast is for a rare gorgeous day in April. Guess I’ll bring along my umbrella in case it rains!” Sheesh! I love this town, but seriously people!

Oh, and lest you think I’m the one being stupid, I’m joking. Clearly the sign was there just to support the yellow tape around a downed tree. And the woman is carrying a parasol to keep the sun off her fair skin. But it sure is fun to write like a blowhard once in a while ;-)
