Memories at Snoqualmie Falls
The day before the snow arrived – it seems so long ago – we went to Snoqualmie Falls, one of our favorite local attractions. The Falls are an easy drive from Seattle and a place to wow your out-of-town guests. Or to celebrate a… Continue Reading “Memories at Snoqualmie Falls”

Yesterday I went looking for ‘Red” for a photo challenge – I guess I could have waited and included these pictures from this morning too. As you probably know by now we are in the midst of Snowmageddon here in the Pacific Northwest with… Continue Reading “Hummingbirds in the Snow”

A Rainy Day at Historic Balboa Park
It never rains in San Diego except when it does. Fortunately we’d already planned to spend the day at Balboa Park where we could hide in museums when necessary. So I left Bob at the Air and Space Museum and roamed among the gardens… Continue Reading “A Rainy Day at Historic Balboa Park”
