Madison Valley + New Orleans


Seen in madison valley

Residents of Madison Valley still have not received flood payments from the city, and it's clear they're pretty pissed off. This hand printed sign ("Welcome to Little New Orleans") was duct-taped on top of the official City of Seattle sign near the stormwater drainage facility. Residents have long alleged that the city has not properly dealt with the chronic flooding of the neighborhood.

Oh, and the folks at Seattlest have also picked up the photo.

New year...new photos

A few selected photos from the last week of the 2003 (minus those of recognizable people and those that are more incriminating):

Outside the Muckleshoot Casino

Inside the Muckleshoot
A very dark and grainy pict inside the casino - I didn't really want to get caught taking photos, but I had to have proof that the place was packed!

You'll have to forgive the numerous snow pictures I took, but it's pretty rare here in Seattle, and I was excited.
