I suppose eastern Washington is many things to many people.
Moving about these nondescript rolling farmlands, alternately filled with tumbleweeds, sagebrush, dilapidated fences and buildings is just not my favorite thing to do. I am used to forests and abundant greens that can be seen throughout the Olympic Peninsula. I will choose mountains and valleys every time given a choice of my surroundings.
One highlight of our recent trip was visiting Washington's official state waterfall----Palouse Falls. I had mentioned to my son Cole that it would be fun to reach the base of this falls and he mentioned that it could be done.
From the parking lot and high vantage points, he took me to a four foot fence that we had to jump, then we began a descent through a 3 to 4 foot wide and steep trail through a basalt rock fissure. It was cool and sort of crazy. We had to stop two times, take of our backpacks and hand them sideways to the other. It was a tight squeeze.
Once we cleared this area, we hit a trail that went along a steep headwall. The views were good, but it was breezy and at first I was not comfortable in these surroundings. We moved along for a bit then came to the part of the trail that dropped steeply down to the river bottom. Cole had problems here and had to scoot along on his butt. I managed fine, because I had on my good hiking boots.
Once we got to the bottom, the movement was fine. I wanted to get lower perspective photographs of this waterfall rather than the "normal, here we are, shoot from the high fence normal every human being does this photographic opportunity effort"!
How was that for a run on sentence?
So, here is my son Cole near the base of this large waterfall. It was a very fun day with a pretty cool young man :)

Não estava nos meus planos c o m p r a r essa base, mas ouvi falar muito bem dela por aÃ, tipo, alguns comentários que ela era ótima pra pele oleosa.
Passei numa lojinha de bobeira hoje no centro da cidade e vi essa coisinha lá... Não resisti e testei a amostrinha do provador e fiquei encantadÃssima... Passei um tiquinho no dorso da mão, espalhei (ela é cremosinha), 2 minutos depois a minha pele tava sequiiiinha...
Ela é lÃquida, meio cremosa, mas depois de espalhar ela some e deixa a pele matte! Era tudo que eu queria, né? minha pele é absurdamente oleosa!
Acabei levando...
Melhor ainda foi que encontrei uma cor que deu certinho em mim! Ficou muito natural. Foi a nº 05, Vanilla.
Acho até que vou desistir da Studio Fix e só comprar a Face & Body... Já fiquei muito contente com essa. :)
Alguém aqui tem a Superbalanced? Gostaram dela?

I know I have posted a photo of this dish before but it always bowls me over- so I get the same thing every time. This place is located just outside one of the back gates of Mayport Naval Station. I visit a lot of the same places every year and I'm starting to plan my day around food. If you have a restaurant rec. for a town with a Navy or Marine Corps base- please feel free to share.
Sorry I've been MIA lately.
I've come to the harsh reality that I base my identity in my photography, in my comics and in my current romantic relationship. I know that this isn't the way I should be. My identity should be in Christ and my self worth should not be in any earthly thing.
I am running full force for the Lord in a way I never have.
I mentally stepped away from my photography.
I broke up with my boyfriend so that I could focus on the things I need to.
I'm doing what I need to do to get where I wanna be.
I'm continually amazed by the goodness of the Lord and how satisfied I am just resting in his promises.
So yeah. Here's to getting your priorities straight!
The Battle of Basing re-enactment of 2010 was carried out by The Sealed Knot, which is the oldest and largest historical re-enactment society in the UK and Europe, respectively.
The society is dedicated to commemorating and educating the public about the English Civil War and the 17th Century. They stage events throughout the country, including large-scale re-enactments of battles, skirmishes, and sieges, as well as smaller educational visits to schools. The Sealed Knot aims to honour those who died in the English Civil War, educate the public about the period, and bring history to life through immersive experiences. It is a registered educational charity.
The Sealed Knot takes its name from the original Sealed Knot, a secret association aimed at the restoration of the monarchy, although the modern incarnation has none of the political affiliations of its namesake. Apart from re-enactment, it is also involved in research into the history of the Civil War, and education (at the school or college level) about the same.
The siege of Basing House near Basingstoke in Hampshire, was a Parliamentarian victory late in the First English Civil War. Whereas the title of the event may suggest a single siege, there were in fact three major engagements. John Paulet, 5th Marquess of Winchester owned the House and as a committed Royalist garrisoned it in support of King Charles I, as it commanded the road from London to the west through Salisbury.
The first engagement was in November 1643, when Sir William Waller at the head of an army of about 7,000 attempted to take Basing House by direct assault.
Early in 1644 the Parliamentarians attempted to arrange the secret surrender of Basing House with Lord Edward Paulet, the Marquess of Winchester's younger brother, but the plot was discovered.
Then on 4 June 1644, Colonel Richard Norton using Parliamentary troops from the Hampshire garrisons closely invested Basing House and attempted to starve the garrison into submission. This siege was broken on 12 September 1644 when a relief column under the command of Colonel Henry Gage broke through parliamentary lines.
The final siege took place in October 1645, and the House caught fire and was badly damaged. What remained was "totally slighted and demolished" by order of Parliament, with the bricks of the House offered free to anyone who would cart them away.

Seen outside Base Camp - (Not the Mt Everest Base camp but a Himalayan Restaurant at Templestowe named after the famous landmark.
A noisy rainbow lorikeet flew past, squawking
To reach Everest Base Camp after eight days of a vigorous trek is an amazing feeling. To see the shimmering Khumbu icefall, the iconic yellow tents of EBC completely ensconced in a Colosseum of huge peaks & hustle & bustle on the approach is a magical moment alright. I laughed & choked at seeing the yellow tents; yes at the same time! :D
