West Seattle Easter scenes: Egg-hunters; tulips; Christmas holdover

Just before 11 am, we stopped by C & P Coffee (WSB sponsor) – and discovered they were moments away from an Easter-morning egg hunt (unadvertised to avoid a giant crowd, they explained, though if you’re a C & P regular, you would have seen the sign). So we hung around for a photo, as the littlest hunters got a head-start on the front patio. Before that, we found a little holiday brightness at the West Seattle Farmers’ Market, next best thing to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival:

(Skagit Valley, by the way, apparently is running later than usual this year – just like Easter – so if you haven’t been yet, there’s still time.) Then, further south, we happened onto an entirely unseasonal sighting:

The itinerant Christmas tree was spotted along SW Thistle, by Southwest Pool.

    it’s spring, the weather is warming a bit, trees are blooming, flowers are showering us with multitudes of colors and beauty…and someone has to use this beautiful world as their garbage dump? Happy Earth Day indeed, folks…that is so sad.:(

    At least its compostable and not something that will last for thousands of years…

    I’ve always thought that killing a tree is an odd Christmas tradition.
