Photos: Week 34


Waking Up. Pink, purple, blue, beautiful.


The White Way of Delight. These tree blossoms smell incredible.


Big Red Barn. This pretty building is actually an art studio, with a sculpture garden peeking out from the background.


Woven Fence. An unusual barrier between a yard with blossoming trees and the road.


Surveying. A seagull perches on a stump on the mainland, looking out over the island.


Beach Glass. Pieces of glass somehow end up in the ocean and are buffed smooth by the waves crashing them over the beach again and again.


Bzzzz. Bees wake up to gorge during the early spring.

Golden Silhouette. Sunrise through the fog illuminates the treetops south of our house.


Totem. A toothy totem on the Lummi Reservation.


Wild Eyed. I discovered my camera has a "Kids and Pets" setting, with fantastically clear results!


Just Resting. A statue downtown that caught my eye mainly because I love how the missing bench arms contribute to the effortlessness of his pose.


Glowing. I am becoming obsessed with the beauty of the fog in the northwest.


2010. I saw my first electric vehicle charging station in the grocery store parking lot the other day (if you are chuckling at this, remember I live on an island with a population well under 1,000!).


Puppy Paradise. The view from an off-leash dog area near a river in town: a barn, clouds, and snow-topped mountains on the horizon.

No Snow Here. Spring has arrived on the island, and the whole world is in bloom!


Heron This Rock. A heron contemplates his quickly disappearing perch as the tide comes in.


My Dream House. A sweet, cozy one-room cabin at the inn on the island.


Seal Rock. Taken from the island's west side, looking north at the Canadian mountains.


Monet Sunrise. A bit fuzzy, but I was sleepy when I took this at 6:05 AM!


Sneak Peak. A heron gives me a sideways glance from his hiding place between the rocks.


Purple Cotton Candy. A blossoming plum tree next door.
