Mercedes Benz, September 20, 2003

  

 

Chieko, from the San Francisco Bay Area, had a friend there interested in buying an old Mercedes Benz from a fellow in Seattle's University District. Chieko asked me to snap a few pictures to help her friend decide on the merits of coming up for a firsthand look...

 

It was a lovely afternoon in my neighborhood...

 

Downtown Bellevue, where a bridge moving was taking place - the NE 8th St Bridge over I-405...

    

Crossing Lake Washington in route to Seattle's University District...

 

       

 

   

 

The fellow with the Mercedes up for sale has an interesting yard...

Something about this guy's yard caused me to head straight up to the corner coffee shop at Roosevelt Square...

 

Back up on the I-5... through downtown Seattle...

 

       

 

 

Back over Lake Washington to Bellevue...
