This morning we spotted an article telling of more Guerilla Art in Seattle. (Guerilla Art is designed to surprise, shock or amuse and is [in my opinion] a form of graffiti.) Heh, this was right down our alley, so we hopped in the car and headed to Magnuson Park on Lake Washington. Magnuson Park is no stranger to Guerilla Art, having been the site of the Great Monolith Mystery of 2001. Here's what we found when we arrived ~

Nine life-size soldiers were standing at attention up on top of Kite Hill.

One side of the "leader" is painted silver.

The other is a collage of photos and paintings.

His top half depicts bombers


The lower part appears to be a crumbling building with
stricken-looking faces behind the "windows".

The faces of the other eight soldiers are symbolically composed of mirrors.

Tim had a good look at the troops.

And so did I. The KOMO article said that the soldiers would remain there until
kite season, but who knows? That was the plan with the monolith in 2001,
but it was kidnapped and reappeared at Green Lake. We shall see.

For good measure, here's the glorious Mount Rainier, seen on the way home.
