"Ding, ding, ding went the trolley.... zing, zing, zing went my heartstrings. From the moment I saw you I fell... " Oh. Sorry. I was singing off-key, too. Yikes!

That purple and yellow with the blue windows... such a cheery photo.

LOL @ the slut. :) ~Lydia

Thanks you guys :-) These things are new to Seattle and all the cars have different jolly colors. The official name for the line was originally "The South Lake Union Trolley". Then a little too late people realized the initials would be S.L.U...you get me drift- oops! So they scatched calling it a trolley and it is now officially a streetcar :-) My thirteenth floor office window looks straight down on this thing from that buidling you can see just the corner of in the left foreground. I love hearing the cute little trolley..er..streetcar bells while I am working.

Wonderful! The yellow lines and sign, purpose against the blue and gray, all work together. Seems like a playful place to walk and snap. All we have is white and gray here... and a lot of potholes. jano
