A Ramble Around the Top of Beacon Hill, Winter, 2024

Odd Ones
Written By rambling seattle

This one goes around the immediate area of the Beacon Hill lightrail station. There are lots of bakeries and cafes up here and the one thing this video cannot capture is the amazing smell of all of that plus coffee as I walked around. It was a day that threatened rain but as it turned out, it stayed dry but the grey light filtered everything. The neighborhood it really quite residential and this area is one of the limited places that has retail stuff but it is loaded with the local neighborhood feel. Enjoy!
