Endorsing All Auto Mechanic Conventions!

By an odd coincidence greatly beneficial to all, my husband works as a software developer for High Road Automotive. Since his job description involves more data bases than oil changes, he was not required to attend the convention his shop-mates went to this last week.

This meant he had all of Friday free to visit the Seattle Sculpture Park with me!

We started out with a lazy morning of scones and tea.


And then I was almost late! No, actually I ran inside to get something I forgot and Jonathan snapped this picture as I came around the bush. But don't I look funny?

Here we are in Capula XVI by Pedro Reyes.

It was a cool woven hanging basket sort of thing that you could climb into.

Wake by Robert Serra

Perre's Ventaglio III by Beverly Pepper--very shiny!

Eagle by Alexander Calder...are we about to be eaten or sat on?

Here is Jonathan studying Stinger by Tony Smith. (He is silly)

Split by Roxy Paine was my favorite! This time of year, you can't hardly tell the difference between it and other trees that have lost their leaves.

All that walking and looking made us hungry, so we grabbed a late lunch at Spaghetti Factory.

And now you know why I think automotive conventions are an important part of our economy and ought to be supported, endorsed and attended widely by all auto mechanics...as often as possible!
