The sky is blue and that floating almost mushroom like column of cloud structure rising in the background is right over downtown Seattle. Not too many photo opportunities, I'm driving after all.

Out and about Friday morning shooting video for the RE Barcamp Seattle event. Headed back to my office about 11:30 AM. It's a rainy nasty gray morning, but the traffic is moving... well, until I get downtown when it comes to a halt. Something is going on just past the Olive St. exit and the right...
