A Ramble Traversing the North End of Capitol Hill, Winter, 2023
This one runs from the west side of Capitol Hill along Lakeview Ave E. (confusing, I know), up across E Howe St to the north end of Lakeview Cemetery (different lake and different view… yes, I know). Then I get down to 19th Ave E. to E John St. and on to the east side of Capitol Hill at 23rd Ave E. It is super residential except for one small retail strip on 19th Ave E. This one is a little rough as my unicycle that I use to keep the video from bouncing was overinflated and that made it stiff. I didn’t have time to redo it and my editing software couldn’t knock it out. I’ll redo this one eventually but enjoy the walk!
