Pretty much says it all.

We walked over to the Spaghetti Factory last night for dinner. It was a typical day that we've had pretty much all along -- gray & cloudful. I noticed this tree that I had walked by before but this time noticed that it was made of metal--if you look at the top part you really can't tell it's not a real tree. It pretty much exemplifies the gloomy, gray days of winter here in the NW; colorless, leafless, unchanging. I do like Seattle despite the gloom. Would like to be here in the next month when the color arrives, but today we head for Forks, WA in search of teenage vampires.
