Life is to short.... So You only live once, so think twice

To be able to look back upon ones life in satisfaction, is to live twice.

Well, Mr. Jose :D there is some truth in that.... The main difference in Seattle and Phoenix is the weather. In Seattle, the weather is very unpredictable. Seattle has a wet and rainy reputation.. :whistle:

Image

It's often clouded... However, Rain it just drizzles lightly (much like mist) and rarely has downpours. A light jacket was all that you had to carry around for the mild cold and drizzle.. :whistle:

From what I see and hear on the daily news, and films, and documentaries....

The rain never stops in Seattle.

Its a wet and miserable place.

The top of the Sears Tower is the last place of refuge from the floods, for the locals!

...apparently...

The film; "Singin' in the Rain" was filmed in Seattle...

...maybe...

A visit to Seattle can be replicated by a cold shower....

..I reckon...

Paul....Seattle: Too far North for my liking.... :( ...!

Phoenix AZ, I like!.... :dance: ...!

Phoenix to Flagstaff (I-40/Route 66) using the I-17 highway, stopping off at Sedona via 179 and 89A roads.

A fantastic ride on a Harley Davidson Motorcycle!

An excellent set of shots there sir well done. :clap: :clap: :dance: :dance: :clap: :clap:

Cheers

P.S. The first video has inspired me to pick up my guitar again after a very very long time, so big thanks for that. That chap plays beautifully, always loved the sound of the Shadows and the Stratocaster (Hence my user name ) and John Barry's music. :dance: :dance: :dance:

Thanks again

I would quite happily forgo some time on my Hammond B3 drawbar Organ and Leslie 760 speaker, a multitude of Keyboards, Synthesizers and Guitars, and a spare bedroom full of a Hallé Orchestra assortment of musical instruments; all for a day in the warmth of Phoenix AZ, on a Harley Davidson Street Glide Classic.....

...instead of shivering in Cold old England!

The older I get, the colder I get... :( ...!

Paul..... :mrgreen: ...!

Hope this desert sun will keep you warm (mind over matter)
