I first took interest in the Seahawks in 1983.  That year we saw Dave Krieg, Curt Warner and company make it to the AFC Championship game which they ended up losing to the Raiders.  In 1984, after Curt Warner blew his knee out, Chuck Knox who was known to prefer running the football so much that they called him Ground Chuck, became Air Knox and let Dave Krieg, Steve Largent, Darrel Jackson air it out.  The Hawks finished 12 & 4 and had another Playoff appearance.  After that 12 and 4 season the Seahawks where picked by some to be favorites to make it to the Super Bowl.  After all Curt Warner was back and with his running and the new explosive passing game, 1985 was going to be the Seahawks year.  Unfortunately they went 8 and 8 on the year.

Afternoon Ferry trip to Seattle’s Great Wheel

Bainbridge Island, Indianola, Kitsap, Poulsbo, Silverdale, Suquamish, , , , ,

We had a great time taking an afternoon and cruising over to Seattle via the Bainbridge Ferry and walking down to Seattle’s Great Wheel to take it for a spin or should I say it took us for a spin.

The Ferris Wheel has glass enclosed gondolas that are climate controlled.  The view is spectacular and if the wheel stops while you are at the top, there is plenty of time to enjoy the Seattle Skyline and the views of the Puget Sound.

Sit back relax and enjoy the video of our trip.  Then get out there and ride the Great Wheel of Seattle!
