I saw a lot of this yellow plant by the roadside when I lived in Northern California. I know it sometimes goes where it is not wanted, but I am so happy to see its cheerful yellow in the springtime.

Not sure what the real name of this kind of structure is, seen in Florida at the Bonnet House in Ft. Lauderdale, but I call it a boat garage. (Now I’m told it’s a boat house.)

Coupeville is one of the oldest towns in Washington, I am told. We were here last year at this time. Don’t you just love the starry diamonds on the water?

Boat Haven at Pt. Townsend has a great walkway down to the docks, among other attractions. Gotta love those shadows. Visit Shadow Shot Sunday for more intriguing shadows seen everywhere and SOOC for more straight-out-of-the-camera shots.

Finally some decent weather, so with an extra ten minutes, I ducked out to Des Moines (WA) pier and found some actual shadows, courtesy of actual sunshine. Felt great to be in the light like that. For more fascinating shadows, click HERE.

Here’s a summer vision for you. The Truckee River wanders through Reno, Nevada, right downtown. They did a great job of making it accessible to all. People play and swim in it, and it is so delightful, especially with all that arid desert landscape close by. A veritable oasis; a perfect place for a stroll with a friend.

Walking from Pike’s Place Market (flowers even in late November this year!), Lila paused for a photo. You can get a hint of Puget Sound in the background. For more photos with the color red, click HERE. Don’t be shy, post one of your own!

Hope everyone had a warm and meaningful Thanksgiving feast.

Was in Carefree AZ this week and they sure have great shadows there. For more intriguing shadows around the world, click HERE.
