It feels like spring already -- it's February! -- and the flowers seem to agree. Our cherry blossoms have been enjoying the mild temperatures for a week or two now. Global warming is sad for the polar bears, but it's pretty darn nice for the people in Seattle. The days are getting noticeably longer too, which is nice, because it's still light out when I get off work. Below is this evening's stunning sunset, seen from Volunteer Park. That's Isamu Noguchi's Black Sun in front of the reservoir, and way on the other side of Lake Union is the Space Needle.
