| 'Best Roundabout' 24x24" oil pastel; Kathleen Faulkner |
The first time I experienced a roundabout was in Europe in the 90s I drove the clutch on the opposite side on the two lane roundabout.
Forever after I feel empowered when it comes to roundabouts.
Here in the Skagit there are quite a few. All have unique personalities and we interact with each one differently. The Best Roundabout is, of course, on Best Road. It is handsome. Each direction gives the feeling that the road is really going somewhere. It may also be the easiest to navigate.
It has history. People who have lived here awhile remember the house on the corner with chickens in the yard under the huge willow. I always made a point to notice the tinfoil on the windows. The house is gone now but the willow still remains and so do the views, including some new ones.
It is the best.
