Monday, August 6th, 2012Seattle/Pike Place Market
Sunday, August 5th, 2012Coincidentally, this is also the day that Julia Archibold Holmes became the first woman to reach the top of Pikes Peak, in 1858. But Pike Street in Seattle is named for ditch-digger Harvey Pike, not explorer Zebulon. For a sketch and a story, please see Mountain Woman.
Bed & Breakfast Inn Seattle
Saturday, August 4th, 2012By sheer chance I stumbled across this B&B in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood, a lovely old house run by two friendly, welcoming, and helpful women who, when they weren’t making delicious breakfasts or tracking down useful information for guests, were cleaning and vacuuming like crazy. I love B&Bs because (among other reasons) there are always interesting people to meet and talk with at the communal breakfast table.
