TGIF 3/22/2024 - Edition 145

This week, I finally got a chance to visit a "troll" close to where I live. I had seen various pictures from friends and social about these trolls placed around the area, so I decided to take a walk and find the one a few miles away from me. I was very impressed with the artistic work and how the troll blended into the environment and as you were walking, you wouldn't know it was there until you walked up to it.

If you are ever in the PacNW, there are 6 trolls you can visit that are located on Bainbridge Island, West Seattle, Ballard, Vashon Island & Portland, OR. As my family visits the other ones, don't be surprised if you see a future TGIF pic with one. For those local, have you been to one of the 6? If so, post a picture in the comments.
