The sunset in Port Townsend on Friday was one of the most beautiful I’ve ever seen anywhere. This was the place we were staying in, built in the 1890s.

I have a rose garden in front of my house. A few of the roses didn’t do too well so I replaced them with lavender. I’m very happy with the combination.

Dark red cherries of some kind on my backyard 5-graft tree, right before I picked them. I lost the tags, so don’t know the exact name. But they are delicious! I really love this image and I am calling it my weekly Saturday Top Shot.

Today was the day for picking fruit in our backyard. The netting on the cherry tree worked! We have a 5-graft tree from Raintree Nursery, and this is the tree’s third year. The boysenberries are good this year, too. The raspberries not so much, and the blueberries are just getting going. What treasure!

Clockwise from upper left: Boysenberries, Montmorency cherries, dark cherries, other dark cherries and Rainier cherries, blueberries and raspberries.
