View from the Fifteenth Floor

Last week I had to have a tooth extracted in preparation for an implant. I took some medicine that was prescribed to reduce anxiety durning the procedure, which worked really well. A side effect was that I might experience some short term memory loss for a few hours. I don’t really remember much of anything from the procedure, and it was almost like I walked and talked but wasn’t making any memories at all. A couple of days later I was looking at the photos on my phone and found this photo which I took right after the procedure was over, but I have absolutely no memory of taking it. This is the view from the window of the operating room in downtown Seattle.

Old Birch Trees on Tenth Avenue East

Unfortunately, Birch trees in the area are slowly going away as a “birch blight” makes it’s way from tree to tree. Many have already died, many more have dead branches and will soon be gone. This stretch of 10th Ave E. on Capitol Hill still has some beautiful old birches lining the sidewalk, and so far they have escaped the blight. Hopefully they will be spared for a long time to come because they add such an amazing atmosphere to the street.
