It’s been a scenic week. This amazing, huge cloud shaped like an anvil decorated the sky near Mt. Rainier just a few days ago, taken from the overlook right near my house.

Watering the thirsty garden this evening, I looked up. I really love this image and I am calling it my weekly Top Shot.

The weather was quite cool and damp at the Alki Art Fair this weekend, but Seattleites are a hardy bunch and many came out to stroll and shop. Even gray skies can be scenic!

Dill is very happy in my garden and reseeds so well that I see why it is called dill weed. But it is beautiful and fragrant, and I love to cook with it, so at least some stays. Here is a flower about the size of my hand, not quite in bloom. Note: the word umbel comes from the word umbrella!
