8/5/18 Blue Angels viewers at Maple Leaf Park |
Seattle’s
annual Seafair festival is a
weeks-long summer mashup of community parades, food events and other crowded
activities that culminate on the first weekend of August with hydroplane races.
The highlight of Seafair weekend is the flight of the Blue Angels. Having grown up on Lake Washington where the racing
and flying take place, I don’t get as excited about these events as the rest of
the city seems to. I like to watch the Blue Angels, I suppose, but it’s not
that big of a deal to me.

and I walked up to Maple Leaf Park, where a small crowd had gathered to see
them. Several miles away, the angels were not exactly roaring past our faces.
While everyone else watched the tiny dots dip and fly, I stepped back to sketch
the spectators.

I would probably be more interested in the spectators too. Nice job on the tower!
