Countdown to Trader Joe's


Driving home in the cyclone yesterday, I took a slight detour past the Trader Joe's construction site and got out to take this picture. The big red sign is up, the Hiring Now! banner is out, and after months of work and delays the inside of the old car dealership showroom is finally looking like a grocery store. Soon the goodies will be trucked in and TJ's fanatical customers in West Seattle will have a store of their own. In 30+ years of living in the neighborhood, I can't think of anything that's been as highly anticipated as this store opening, reportedly on April 13th.

In case you missed it the first time, here's the cute Trader Joe's video from YouTube, now approaching 1 million hits.

  1. Cute video. We are finally getting a Trader's Joe's in Southern Oregon and it will be just down the street from our house. I'm curious to find out what all the buzz is about!
