Underdog

Whilst taking the Seattle Underground Tour, we emerged briefly into an alley to find this neat example of eight-bit art. This was snapped back in February.

Stand behind the yellow line

Some random nonsense captured out the window of an Amtrak train as we idled at the station platform in Olympia, Washington, back in February 2013.

Chance to be kind

An awesome, uplifting message spotted back in February on a side street just off Denny Way in Seattle.
