Alki Spud
Alki Spud Fish & Chips, West Seattle. Brothers Jack and Frank Alger started selling fish and chips (ten cents for two pieces of ling cod and fries in a cardboard boat) out of their Alki Avenue garage in 1935, cutting a takeout window in the side of the building. During WWII, rationing made oil for frying difficult to obtain, and Spud nearly had to close, but neighbors banded together to donate their oil ration tickets, saving the fish and chip stand. After the war, Spud replaced the old garage with a modern building of a nautical design, including portholes. By 1961 they had replaced this with the current Googie-inspired building featuring an upswept roof. Spud has since expanded to other neighborhoods and cities around Seattle, but the Alki location is the original. -

Louise Lake, Mount Rainier National Park
Mount Rainier's summit is off to the left, and was obscured by cloud for most of this day. The red flowers in the foreground are Western Columbine (Aquilegia formosa). Photo was taken from the edge of Stevens Canyon Road. Probably was named for Christine Louise Van Trump (1880-1907), daughter of Rainier explorer Philemon Van Trump. -

Red Mill
Red Mill Burgers, Interbay, Seattle. Established 1998. Red Mill takes its name from an older Seattle restaurant, which operated between 1937 and 1967. The two sisters of the owner of the present Red Mill had worked at the original - and brought home food for the family - so the name was chosen as a tribute.
