Home > Domestic Diversions Last additions - Domestic Diversions Downtown Seattle623 viewsAs seen across Lake Union from the Gas Works Park. On the shoreline, in the center, is the Museum of History and Industry (Mohai).Sep 23, 2021 Nick and Jane on Kite Hill631 viewsI caught Nick and Jane as they were climbing Kite Hill and shot them against the background of the Aurora Avenue Bridge.Sep 23, 2021 City of Waterways675 viewsThis busy waterway is a part of the Lake Washington Ship Canal known as the Fremont Cut. The Canal enables water transport from Puget Sound to (surprise!) Lake Washington, via Lake Union..Sep 23, 2021 Canada Geese720 viewsThese geese are the same ones who show up on the golf course near our house in the fall and spring. The one in front is George, the next one is Georgia, the third is Geoff, then Glenda, and so on.Sep 23, 2021 Aurora Avenue Bridge742 viewsAurora Avenue is Highway US 99, which also passes very near our B&B in Edmonds away to the north.Sep 23, 2021 Queen Anne District589 viewsThe northern section of Queen Anne, as seen across Union Lake from Kite Hill in the Gas Works Park. Queen Anne Hill and District take their name from the fact that many of the houses built in the late 19th and early 20th century were in the Queen Anne style, a variant of Victorian. (The name refers to the British queen who reigned from 1702 to 1714, though the style actually has nothing to do with her or her time.)Sep 23, 2021 Queen Anne Hill711 viewsThe hill is 456 feet high, the second highest point in Seattle, and contains a number of steep streets and pedestrian staircases; it also hosts 3 TV towers..Sep 23, 2021 Space Needle658 viewsJust to the left of center in the picture you can see the Needle, which proudly towers over the southern section of the Queen Anne District.Sep 23, 2021 Feathered Friends639 viewsThese guys flew down the West Coast Flyway and arrived at the pond on the Seven Hills Golf Course about two weeks after we got home.Sep 23, 2021 Goose Hill764 viewsKite Hill got its name because it was a good place to fly kites from, but it should be renamed Goose Hill because the Canada geese have taken it over.Sep 23, 2021 Reclamation679 viewsBy the time the Gas Works shut down in 1956, this site was a toxic hellhole. Advanced bioremediation methods were used to clean it up and turn it into a public park, which opened in 1973. The gas plant was left intact as a museum piece.Sep 23, 2021 Garage Access590 viewsThe tiny garage in the last picture is apparently associated with the house on top and accessed from the house via the gate on the left. It doesn't strike me as a terribly convenient arrangement.Sep 23, 2021 725 files on 61 page(s) 1 - 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 - 61 Debug Info  Debug Output: show / hide Select All USER: ------------------ Array ( [ID] => 5892f68d288dcbe6b546b381c421316d [am] => 1 ) ========================== USER DATA: ------------------ Array ( [user_id] => 0 [user_name] => Guest [groups] => Array ( [0] => 3 ) [group_quota] => 0 [can_rate_pictures] => 1 [can_send_ecards] => 0 [can_post_comments] => 0 [can_upload_pictures] => 0 [can_create_albums] => 0 [pub_upl_need_approval] => 1 [priv_upl_need_approval] => 1 [access_level] => 3 [disk_max] => 0 [disk_min] => 0 [has_admin_access] => 0 [group_name] => Guests [can_create_public_albums] => 0 [can_see_all_albums] => 0 [group_id] => 3 [allowed_albums] => Array ( ) ) ========================== Queries: ------------------ Array ( [0] => SELECT name, value FROM cm_config [include/init.inc.php:177] (0.76 ms) [1] => SELECT * FROM cm_plugins ORDER BY priority [include/plugin_api.inc.php:48] (0.15 ms) [2] => SELECT MAX(group_quota) AS disk_max, MIN(group_quota) AS disk_min, MAX(can_rate_pictures) AS can_rate_pictures, MAX(can_send_ecards) AS can_send_ecards, MAX(can_post_comments) AS can_post_comments, MAX(can_upload_pictures) AS can_upload_pictures, MAX(can_create_albums) AS can_create_albums, MAX(has_admin_access) AS has_admin_access, MAX(access_level) AS access_level, MIN(pub_upl_need_approval) AS pub_upl_need_approval, MIN( priv_upl_need_approval) AS priv_upl_need_approval FROM cm_usergroups WHERE group_id in (3) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:350] (0.95 ms) [3] => SELECT group_name FROM cm_usergroups WHERE group_id= 3 [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:362] (1.16 ms) [4] => SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cm_categorymap WHERE group_id in (3) [bridge/udb_base.inc.php:375] (0.21 ms) [5] => SELECT aid FROM cm_albums WHERE moderator_group IN (3) [include/init.inc.php:271] (0.39 ms) [6] => SELECT lang_id FROM cm_languages WHERE enabled='YES' [include/init.inc.php:334] (0.09 ms) [7] => DELETE FROM cm_banned WHERE expiry < '2026-06-15 04:43:34' [include/init.inc.php:448] (1.5 ms) [8] => SELECT null FROM cm_banned WHERE ('216.73.217.71' LIKE ip_addr OR '' LIKE ip_addr ) AND brute_force=0 LIMIT 1 [include/init.inc.php:464] (1.46 ms) [9] => SELECT aid FROM cm_albums WHERE (1 AND visibility != 0 AND visibility != 10000 AND visibility NOT IN (3)) [include/functions.inc.php:1110] (1.14 ms) [10] => SELECT name FROM cm_categories WHERE cid = 6 [thumbnails.php:157] (0.75 ms) [11] => SELECT rgt, lft, depth FROM cm_categories WHERE cid = 6 LIMIT 1 [include/functions.inc.php:44] (0.06 ms) [12] => SELECT cid FROM cm_categories WHERE lft BETWEEN 13 AND 28 [include/functions.inc.php:49] (0.05 ms) [13] => SELECT keyword FROM cm_albums WHERE category IN (20, 6, 10, 11, 15, 16, 21, 19) [include/functions.inc.php:57] (0.05 ms) [14] => SELECT p.cid, p.name FROM cm_categories AS c, cm_categories AS p WHERE c.lft BETWEEN p.lft AND p.rgt AND c.cid = 6 ORDER BY p.lft [include/functions.inc.php:2940] (0.67 ms) [15] => SELECT COUNT(*) FROM cm_pictures AS r INNER JOIN cm_albums AS a ON a.aid = r.aid INNER JOIN cm_categories AS c2 ON c2.cid = category WHERE (c2.lft BETWEEN 13 AND 28) AND (1 OR keywords like '%27telp%') AND r.aid NOT IN (12, 51) AND approved = 'YES' [include/functions.inc.php:1614] (23.58 ms) [16] => SELECT r.pid, r.aid, filepath, filename, url_prefix, pwidth, pheight, filesize, ctime, r.title, r.keywords, r.votes, pic_rating, hits, caption, r.owner_id, user1, user2, user3, user4 FROM cm_pictures AS r INNER JOIN cm_albums AS a ON a.aid = r.aid INNER JOIN cm_categories AS c2 ON c2.cid = category WHERE (c2.lft BETWEEN 13 AND 28) AND (1 OR keywords like '%27telp%') AND r.aid NOT IN (12, 51) AND approved = 'YES' ORDER BY ctime DESC, pid DESC LIMIT 312 ,12 [include/functions.inc.php:1630] (23.71 ms) [17] => SELECT extension, mime, content, player FROM cm_filetypes [include/functions.inc.php:5952] (0.13 ms) ) ========================== GET : ------------------ Array ( [album] => lastup [cat] => 6 [page] => 27 ) ========================== POST : ------------------ Array ( ) ========================== COOKIE : ------------------ Array ( ) ==========================
