day seventy: september 30, 2009.

this is what i can only guess is the "halloween" window at ophelia books here in fremont, judging by the twilight volumes, h.p. lovecraft anthology and - my personal favorite - "sadism in the movies."

so naughty! bookstore kitty loves it. xo.

day sixty nine: september 29, 2009.

fall is coming!!!!!!!!!!!! xo.

day sixty eight: september 28, 2009.

this is a famous fremont statue near the water called, "waiting for the interurban."

you can read all about it HERE, but what i think is really neat is that the city WANTS you to decorate it and have fun with it. the sculpture people are always in wacky outfits, or decked out with props and signs celebrating someone's 21st birthday, graduation or anniversary, and there are always streamers floating in the breeze nearby as a result.

it's just an example of the mindset here in seattle, and definitely fremont. love it!

xo.

day sixty seven: september 27, 2009.

i like to call this the fremont "fry guy." it's really creepy and i've gone back and forth a lot over whether to post it, but really... i just had to.

so random. it's out front of "deluxe junk," that rad vintage store a couple blocks from our place.

the other day i saw the owners carrying him out and setting him up as part of their opening ritual, and it was just surreal.

don't gaze upon him too long or you might have strange dreams... xo.

day sixty six: september 26, 2009.

this is another sign from that deli on capitol hill that i previously put up. theses signs are just hilarious, and ever-changing.

there was also one with the beatles on it, but the illustration on this one really won me over. ;)

xo.

day sixty five: september 25, 2009.

this is a shot from inside roxy's, which is an east coast style diner in our neighborhood. it's super kitschy, and filled with waitresses that look like they just skated off the rink at a roller derby.

it's so fun!! the walls are mega decorated with posters and funny art, like that wedding sign for quickie same sex drive-thru weddings. :)

the food is pretty good, too, and cheap. you can get egg on a bagel about 400 different ways, which is awesome, and the lunch counter is the best place to sit!

yum. xo.

day sixty four: september 24, 2009.

this is the fremont rocket. it is a very special fremont monument.

it's attached to a very fancy store about two blocks from our apartment near the markers declaring fremont the "center of the universe." it's just neat to wander past it, look up and say hello. xo.
