At periodic meetings for an org that I attend, they are usually very good at taking care of us vegans. However, this was the best that a Dallas Hilton could come up with this week. 😂 I assume the UnSweet is the vegan part (healthy is woke?). I dunno. The disdainful quote marks are the best part.
A sign from a Dallas Hilton meeting buffet saying “UnSweet Iced Tea “Vegan.”

We had a freeze or very close to freeze last week, so I think they are being careful to pull up the tubers now. Also, they have a LOT of tubers to lift!

I saw something about a #WindowsOnWednesdays tag, which reminded me of this one from July, 2014. This has changed a lot; I was walking by this spot yesterday. Sorry about the odd toning; I don't know what I was doing there. #Photography #ClassicMono (sort of 🤣) #Seattle
Monochrome image of a set of paned windows in a block building wall with scrappy plants partly in front and utility wires running above the windows.  a 6-pane block of windows is open to the interior, which is some kind of work space.  Taken in July 2014, Seattle.

It's been rainy or at least cloudy for most of a couple weeks, but every time I get to wander around Seattle, it is sunny with featureless blue skies. Sigh. Give me some rain and gloom! 😂 #Photography #ClassicMono #Seattle #CapitolHill

This single frame from September was kind of cool. The dahlia in the background looks like a reflection in a pond or something. #Photography #ColorADay #PinkMon #Dahlia #Flower #VolunteerPark #Seattle
Pink and white dahlia with tinges of yellow toward the center, partially opened, against a blurred background with another similar dahlia looking like a blurred reflection of the subject, and all against a green blurred foliage background.
