Rocket and Saturn, Together at Last

 

5/2/22 Fremont's Saturn Building

Six years ago when USk Seattle met in Fremont, I tried to find a way to get both the Fremont Rocket and Saturn (atop its namesake building) in the same composition. Even though I kept walking around, trying to find a spot that would work, nothing did. I had to settle for the Rocket alone.

Taking a rainy walk through Fremont last week, I stayed dry under a store awning to sketch Saturn. As I continued my walk, I suddenly found the spot that would enable me to put the Rocket and Saturn together in the same sketch! With no shelter in sight, I pulled out my Field Notes for a wet and hasty sketch: At last, two Fremont icons together. Now that I know where to stand, I’ll come back on a dry day for a more leisurely sketch.
