So it was really, really windy in Seattle today – I don’t know how many miles per hour or anything, but there was enough for people to be laughing nervously getting knocked of balance at intersections.There was also a college-age guy on 5th and Pike playing acoustic guitar and singing his own song, selling cd’s that he’d obviously burned himself. As I was walking by, enough wind came in a single gust to blow a handful of his albums into the street. He caught his hat and guitar case but he basically just had to watch all his music fly away and he looked pretty unhappy about it.But oh man, the street was completely empty, so I just walked out and picked them all up while he shuffled his sidewalk studio back together. He was really happy about it – I’m sorry to say I missed the photo op, but I’m sure he would have accepted an invitation to take a picture with him, he was smiling hard.
