Seattle’s FREE Frye Art Museum
This past week we meet our new friends from Snohomish County at Seattle’s Frye Art Museum.
The Frye Art Museum has been depicted as “The “old girl on Pill Hill” (at 704 Terry Avenue) is now “a chic young heiress whom everyone will want to date” (Art Guide Northwest, 1998). This quote and other interesting history of the Frye are found through Historylink.org at:

Art Walls in Olympia
Most of our trips are to destinations outside of Olympia. But you can take a bus to Olympia. Olympia has 4 independent bookstores and many coffee shops. There is much to see in Olympia. For one thing, there are the art walls–public art that appears on the sides of downtown buildings.
Here are five. See if you know where they are. Think of this as a contest.
