Here’s a photo, taken in July, of the overlook near my house at sunset looking out to Vashon Island, I believe. I don’t know the names of these cute, mini-funnel-shaped pink clouds. Anyone?

These birds were migrating in late August off the coast of Oregon, in the Pacific Northwest. You can see the surfers in wetsuits in the water, too. It went on like this for the longest time. Uncountable number of birds.

I was in Seattle and saw this view of the Space Needle, and the Experience Music Project on the lower left. Glorious!

Finally got to get outside today. Super cold, but sunny. Here are some trees and sky and brick buildings with windows reflected in windows of brick buildings, looking fine in Seattle.

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!

This photo was taken exactly one year ago, but the recent rain and wind has mostly taken the pretty leaves around the neighborhood by now, this year. Don’t you think this looks a bit like a pointillist painting?
