Seattle, Washington - The Jewel of the Pacific Northwest
With an estimated 620,778 residents as of 2011, Seattle is the largest city in the Pacific Northwest region of North America and the largest city on the West Coast north of San Francisco. The Seattle metropolitan area of around 4 million inhabitants is the 15th largest metropolitan area in the United States. The city is situated on a narrow isthmus between Puget Sound (an inlet of the Pacific Ocean) and Lake Washington, about 100 miles (160 km) south of the Canada--United States border. A major gateway for trade with Asia, Seattle is the 8th largest port in the United States and 9th largest in North America in terms of container handling.
The Seattle area had been inhabited by Native Americans for at least 4,000 years before the first permanent white settlers. Arthur A. Denny and his group of travelers, subsequently known as the Denny Party, arrived at Alki Point on November 13, 1851. The settlement was moved to its current site and named Seattle in 1853, after Chief Si'ahl of the local Duwamish and Suquamish tribes.
Logging was Seattle's first major industry, but by the late 19th century the city had become a commercial and shipbuilding center as a gateway to Alaska during the Klondike Gold Rush. By 1910, Seattle was one of the 25 largest cities in the country. However, the Great Depression severely damaged the city's economy. Growth returned during and after World War II, due partially to the local Boeing company, which established Seattle as a center for aircraft manufacturing. The city developed as a technology center in the 1980s. The stream of new software, biotechnology, and internet companies led to an economic revival, which increased the city's population by almost 50,000 between 1990 and 2000. More recently, Seattle has become a hub for green industry and a model for sustainable development.

Wildfires Northwest
I flew my drone up above Vancouver, WA to see what it looks like from up high. I thought I'd share with you. Most of the aerial drone footage is right over I5 and 78th st area. The east wind is bringing over allot of smoke from the forest fire. The whole northwest United States is blanketed in what looks like heavy fog but it smells like a strong campfire!

Coast Guard and Airlift NW helicopter flybys
A couple helicopter clips for you all to enjoy.
Clip 1: US Coast Guard HH-65 Dolphin passing overhead while I was on the Ballard Bridge.
Clip 2: An Airlift Northwest medical helicopter, landing at the Montlake Fill helipad in Northeast Seattle.
The Montlake Fill (aka Union Bay Natural Area) is a park/wetland on the University of Washington property. I go birding at the Fill fairly often, but this was the first time I'd seen a helicopter land there.
It's located about 3/4 of a mile from Seattle Children's Hospital (which has its own helipad), so I'm not sure if they were using this as an alternate site, or if it was for an unrelated medical call.
Pictures: A few of the animals I saw there during my walk.
