Seattle, Washington: Down on Alaskan Avenue, on one of the piers there, this was one of the wonderous views to anyone's eyes which have been deprived of the sight of the ships and the bay. I might describe Seattle, or what I have chanced to see in my few trips there, to the gnat's eyebrow, but I'll just say that a good feeling comes over me when I lean out on the railing overlooking the waves and simply stand there for a few minutes. Ah, salt spray!
