Seattle, Washington – While visiting Seattle, our friend Tim Crowley mentioned that florists were a very important part of the psychological makeup of Seattle’s residents.  He explained that Seattle’s notoriously cloudy skies can really dampen the spirits.  However, the purchase of a brightly colored bouquet of flowers can really brighten one’s day.

From our hotel (The Alexis Hotel), Tim walked us down the street to visit his friend Michael who owns Buckets flower shop.

As one who is addicted to saturated colors, I just had to share a few of my photographs with you from Michael’s shop.

If you happen to be in Seattle, stop by Buckets and tell Michael that The Roaming Boomers® said hello.

Very colorful, don’t you think?  🙂
