Catching up

The end of 2007 was a bit slow for blogging, as I was distracted by my new Chicklet, the holidays, and etc. I intend to get things back on track for 2008. For starters, here are some photos (taken by Bus Nerd) I meant to post over the last few weeks:

Moving furniture on the 27:

And I thought I deserved props for taking a large painting to the framer’s on the 8.

The remains of a hurried bus-stop breakfast:

Bus Nerd has been known to do this, though he tends not to leave his Tupperware behind.

A notice posted at the stop in front of Benaroya Hall:

Bike rack warning

Starting Saturday, January 5th, bike racks will not be available on some Metro Transit routes and trips. Some bike racks are being removed due to rack operating concerns. Racks will be replaces in the coming weeks as they become available.

This change affects all bus trips on routes 1, 2, 3, 4,10, 12, 13, 14, 36, 49, and 70 and some trips on routes 7, 43, and 44.

For more information, visit www.kingcounty.gov/metro.

Looks like the three-bike racks aren’t working out as well as planned.

And speaking of the Benaroya stop: Check the new solar-powered trash compactor that has replaced the standard nasty, overflowing can:

Nice.

And finally: a crowded stop near the stadium after the Seattle-Washington playoff game–back when times were still good for Seahawk fans:

Bye, Seahawks

Perhaps if folks had ridden the bus to Lambeau on Saturday…

Until next year, gentlemen.
