Location

Everett Mall south parking lot.

Participants

Thomcat

Plans

Stop by after work.

Expedition

Scouted to be in (or quite near) the parking lot for Everett Mall. Found to be so also.

Drove north from work to the mall. Just getting out of the business complex took 15 minutes, likely a by product of holiday shoppers. While waiting at a stop light nearby, I snapped a picture of the nearly full moon over traffic.

The mall parking lot itself was easy to get into and not all that busy. Turns out the spot was right next to a stand of trees, and I basically parked on it. Snapped a quick few pictures, then did a little holiday shopping myself.
