Save the Pagwens

While in Seattle a couple of weekends ago, I grabbed some lunch and hopped on a bus, with the intention of making my way in a random direction to see if I could track down a 1960’s dress. My survey uncovered a lot of expected construction, a neat cafĂ© with a tree house in front of it, and quite possible the most amazing “global warming awareness” poster that I have ever seem. The poster was hung amongst finger paintings in the window of a daycare. The poster, framed by a colorful border, read “Save the Pagwens…Dide you no that omost abot hafe of Antarctica melted.” It was moving enough to send me off the bus, in order to get a snap shot of it, which turned out well for me, because it also happened to be very close to a random vintage shop that had just what I was looking for.
