Sunflowers at the Steam Plant

 We met this morning at the Georgetown Steam Plant this morning.

The Steam Plant was built in 1907 to provide power to Seattle’s electric street car system, as well as the Seattle-Tacoma Interurban Railway. Trivia: Seattle was the 4th city in the world to have an electric street car system.

I've been there several times so I indulged my current obsession with sunflowers. It's in a sad little planting bed near a sculpture found to the rear of the steam plant. Under that small dome is a truck. It’s titled “Interspecies Communication” by Ela Lamblin and Lelavision.

We had a visitor: Leslie, from USk Las Vegas ( though she grew up in this area).

We were a large group with several first-timers.
