I had an "Aha" moment when I saw this article. We were up in the building again where I posted the night reflection photos the other day. I was looking at the Light Rail construction across the way, and I was thinking "where is it going?" From our vantage point, it sort of just disappeared in the trees on the left side. Aha! They're digging a short tunnel under part of Bellevue, going out to Redmond and Microsoft.
Having this park right across the street...I'm spoiled! Even on these colder, dark days. If at all possible, when we start snow-birding, I want to return to Bothell. Just waiting on Mr Covid. I call the park in the first two photos my "dead end park" because the public path ends by some private property down by the white building. If I walk left, and walk through the "Landing Park" with the small playground and Museum area, I go by the new pedestrian bridge. It's due to re-open any day now. My walk to the other side of the river will be shorter once again! Pumped!
It was super foggy along the river yesterday morning. When I looked down the river I thought I made out the shape of a person on the other bank, but I wasn't sure. When I was walking back, I took the shot with the blackberry bushes in the foreground and confirmed that it was a fisherman standing in the water with fishing pants. Whoa! My face was cold, and this guy was standing in the river.
