Bentley's first day in Seattle

Grandma Diane, Uncle Josh and I took Bentley to Seattle for a day. We went to the Seattle Art Museum, saw a crazy installation by a chinese artist that made use of about 7 white Ford Tauruses, ate lunch at the Cheesecake Factory, grabbed a Starbucks and then took a ride on the Ducks (a touristy tour of Seattle on 'ducks', vehicles that travel on both land and water). Josh carried her in the Baby Bjorn for a lot of the time and definitely made his little niece smile.


This is an installation by my UPS sculpture professor, Michael Johnson. We were his first class at UPS when he moved from Delaware. These pieces are called, "Next Move", "Final Move" and "Your Move". They represent chess-like pieces and are constructed out of wood.

We took the monorail to the Seattle Center to ride the Ducks. Josh was making Bentley smile while we waited.
