Seattle PI article and photos

Touron is a nougat of Arabic origin made with almonds and honey or sugar, without which it would just not be Christmas in Spain.

Seattle PI article and photos
Thank you, Touron. That is a fun article. I've always liked that rainy day story about climbing out of the rowboat to a cabin without a roof. The Denny family were settlers in a soggy Seattle. Some farm land from Seattle to Tacoma is still being used for the envisioned use. There are green belts with birds and rabbits. I'd love to have a after work cocktail (or two) with one of the Denny party original settlers. I need a time machine. I'd like to pick their brains. The interviewed Denny family descendant expressed this; "Maria Denny thinks her ancestors would be pleased to see what the city has become.." They call it progress. They started by building a roof on the log cabin.

Oh Pilot of the storm who leaves no trace Like thoughts inside a dream Heed the path that led me to that place Yellow desert stream.
