IVERS, IVERS, IVERS.... either the take out stand in front or the sit down on the wharf...the white clam chouda...
Every time in Seattle my first stop is....issss..I can wait....
Pikes Market...Canterberry Farms Blueberry vinegar..
How many days at Friday Harbor????? Ehhhh after a day on Orca island it got boring...I did find a first edition 4 volume set of "Thomas Jefferson's Works" published in 1829 by his grandson T. J. Randolph. They belonged to a lawyer in PA mid century (Edwin Gow), and then his son somehow brought them to the Seattle late in the 19th century? It even has a print of a rough draft of the Dec of Independence annotated by Franklin in the back of vol 1. Nothing like reading the original..Got them for $75.00 at an antique store.
I have even flown into Victoria, BC just to go to an antique auction on Fort Street. That trip was mostly for antique English Sterling as I recall.
