We went camping at Staircase campground in the Olympic Peninsula in Washington, in the Pacific Northwest. It was beautiful.

My sister Jo is traveling in Nova Scotia, in Canada, and saw a number of beautifully rusting boats in the village of Marie Joseph. And what a sky! I took the liberty of sharing this one with you.

Thinking about our camping trip coming up reminded me of the Bowman Bay camping experience a few years ago. We aren’t going there this time, but thought you’d like to see another view of one of the most scenic landscapes I’ve ever seen.

While visiting Anacortes, WA last weekend, we saw the most amazing natural rock mosaic structures in Causland Memorial Park. This appears to be a performance space.

As you might know, I am a jewelry crafter and have been having a good time in various craft fairs for a few years now. I usually make glass tile jewelry from the pages of my book, “Flowers of Volunteer Park Conservatory,” (see the Jewelry and Shows tabs at the top) but for the Sequim (WA) Lavender Festival I’ve made some special pieces. If you are in the area, please do come see me in Booth 135. Here’s a photo I took out there last year.

While on a cruise ship going to Bermuda, leaving the New York City harbor (see Lady Liberty post below), there was a fireboat looking scenic.
