Ballard Street by Jerry Van Amerongen for September 17, 2016

Just google weatherman Ted then pick one. There are too many Teds – even Ted Baxter.

Why? He has the right to be wrong about the weather as anyone else.

Nothing better than the local weather. If Ted has a clue.

This one looks sufficiently complicated:

I agree with mr_sherman …I don’t know why Tiff has a problem with it….

Well… maybe it’s that Ted gets carried away with his fanciful forecasts…I know he insisted that she take her winter jacket with her, when she met the “girls” for lunch on the patio at La Petite Sauerkraut …and it was a sunny 92 degrees.

Still… as a general rule, he’s not much worse at predictions than the rest of them… they all have their heads up…in the clouds.

Our weatherman said yesterday that we would have rain around noon. When I got up at six, it was raining. Be like Ted and be your own weatherman. But, really, all you need to do is look out the window.

At least Ted doesn’t appear to be going for a ride on his weather balloon…yet!

So this is where all those UFO reports are coming from!

Ted thinks “What’s the worst that could happen?” as his apparatus drifts into the high tension power line.

When we were kids we used to ask:

If you are visiting your aunt in a distant forest, and there is no electricity and no radio or TV how can you know what the weather is like?

Answer: open the window and look out….

ho ho ho….

Bev… a beautiful place, that mosque…it’s Nasir-Al-Mulk, the Pink Mosque, in Shiraz, Iran…

Another view…

And I love the bunny vane too, Happy3!

Dennis… catch?

Monkey!

Wouldn’t you want something a little bigger?

Get Stel to show you this one, out on Old Ballard Road…you wouldn’t have to build anything…I saw a “For Sale” sign when I drove past it on my way out to XTI.
