I was at my brother’s house in Connecticut. He has a wonderful view of the western sky from his upper window.

Seattle’s viaduct is still with us, but not for very much longer after the tunnel is completed. I will miss these views.

There’s a cove near me, south of Seattle, and it does sunsets very well.

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.

I live south of Seattle, just a few minutes from a cove on Puget Sound. There is smoke from nearby wildfires, and the weather people promised us a colorful sunset. Delivered!

It’s been a Volunteer Park Conservatory kind of week. Still waiting for the Corpse Lily (“Dougsley”) to bloom and emit its stench. In the meantime, here’s a view of the sunset through the Bromeliad house.
