Greetings from Ballard

Quickie after an afternoon and evening in Ballard -- my onetime college roommate Hélène has a daughter who lives in Seattle whom her husband Jean-Philippe was visiting, and the two of them came for a lovely dinner with me and Paul at El Moose (I can't speak about the menu overall, but it had a lot of vegetarian entrees for a Mexican restaurant, and what I had was delicious). 

Since we were heading to Ballard, we visited the locks to see the salmon swimming in the fish ladder and the seals trying to catch them before they got there, and we stopped at the National Nordic Museum to see Frankie Feetsplinter, the second Thomas Dambo troll in the area. Earlier I had a dermatologist appointment and that was all the excitement of my morning. A few photos:
