Not Skunked in Seattle!

My hotel in Seattle is less than a mile from a Goodwill store. How could I not scoot over there at the first opportunity?

That opportunity was today.

There is not a parking lot at this Goodwill store and we found a spot a few blocks away.

Upon leaving the car, we were bombarded by loud obscenities from across the street. An irate irritated F-bombing local character. Wow. We ain't in Kansas anymore.

The Goodwill store was mostly clothes - no furniture and "hip" young and friendly employees.

I found an old picture from Missoula Montana with a nice frame for $3.99 and then this woodblock print.

I know what you are thinking when you see this print.

I know that your first thought is - "Hey, that is a skunk cabbage!"

There is a song by Melanie, that has a line in it something like - "Anything is phallic if it's longer than it's wide."

Aptly applied to this print, I do believe...

Either way, it is a vintage 1972 print by Dale De Armond. I googled her and her stuff is rather nice.

This is an early piece by her.

I guess if you have seen one skunk cabbage, you have seen them all.

If you have smelled a skunk cabbage, you know how it was named.

I was pleased to be out of my regular Goodwill store range and still find a good thing.

Yay.
