These boats (and a houseboat!) are tied up at Lake Union in Seattle, WA. I do love the reflections that show Seattle’s gray skies very well.

Today I was at Lincoln Park in West Seattle and saw these huge, mossy branches. What a Pacific Northwest winter sight!

At the recent Paper Dresses show at the Bellevue Arts Museum, photos weren’t allowed of the incredible creations. But could I help it if a photo of their reflecting pool out the window showed some of the magnificent display as well as the buildings of downtown Bellevue, WA?

From a trip to Port Orchard, WA last year just at this time, a very wet pier on a very wet but lovely day. Let’s take a little stroll, shall we?

On the way up to Camano Island, north of Seattle in Washington, for a past Thanksgiving dinner we passed this river and the Cascade Mountains behind it. Can you see the tiny specks of all the birds resting on the water?

It’s getting dark pretty early these days, and these crows were hunkering down for the night against a cloudy sky with rain on the way. You’d think this was old black-and-white film!
