Spring Snow!

Blog friend Red, of Red Deer, Alberta, posted
about spring snow on May 8th.

A few days later, May 13th, Spring Snow arrived in Seattle!

Spring Snow arrived at the Grain Terminal

I snapped these photos while on my daily walk along the Seattle waterfront.

Who came up with the name for this ship?

The Grain Terminal has been busy.

Crew of Spring Snow is not allowed off the ship.
Border Control!

Before docking at Pier 86 the crew worked on
their Emergency Escape Pod.

Next post: More pics from daily spring walks along the waterfront. Wishing everyone a good weekend!

  6. Hello,
    LOL, that is a funny name for a ship! We did have some real spring snow, a few weeks ago. We are having a chilly spring. Take care, enjoy your weekend!

  11. Hello John,
    Lovely that you are enjoying your walks.
    I enjoyed seeing your photographs.

    I had a walk in the rain today! Well it was dry and sunny to start with but then the weather turned rather wet and windy! Never mind, it is still nice to get out and about, especially as our Covid restrictions have been lifted a little more :)

    Enjoy the week ahead.
    Take care, my good wishes.

    All the best Jan

  12. The ship's name made me laugh! For a minute when you said it had arrived I thought my Seattle family had some weather earlier that they hadn't told me about )). Our daughter-in-law (one of them) was born in Red Deer so that caught my eye in this older post that I somehow missed before.
