The Green River Gorge is home to some neat trails.

This weeks SNS is once again the lens work of Greg Stadter. BN 844 leads an A-B-B-A set of Wagons at Willbridge in August 1975. Chuck Schwesinger collection.

Rain drops on a spent petunia in my garden in the PNW. Small focus stack.

I know, I know, another Rainier shot. Told ya I was out! :-)

taken just after the alpenglow died off, liked this spot better but just missed that golden couple minutes. taken above Shadow Lake, Sunrise area.

I put a box where the climbers are, unfortunately on here you can only see the blazed trail, but in lightroom I can see them well enough to count them. :-)

I was able to put the cropped version in comments, kinda cool.

Going over some stuff from 2016........

A foggy morning in the forest. I miss my morning walks.

Captured at Snug Harbor on San Juan Island, Washington.

This picture was taken at the KOA at Bay Center Washington. This is located on Willapa Bay.

Still working on our kitchen.

Under the waterfall of my previous post, check it out!

This capture was taken from Titlow Park Tacoma Washington State with the Narrows Bridge's in the background.

Former Q SD24s power a train on BN rails through a rock cut somewhere in the PNW.... or rather a cut on the Maryland Midland, near Thurmont MD on April 2nd 1984! The brutish SDs infamously had short careers on the former Western Maryland start-up, but look quite at home here. Kenneth Lehman photo, JL Sessa collection.

Out the door I went, this morning. It rained all night, and was still raining. I wanted to see the rain on the petals, and it didn't disappoint.

The U.S. Coast Guard was running exercises on Chambers Bay while fisher folks tried for ling cod on the reef and golfers golfed on the greens.

The gray boat speeding through the fishing boats (far left) towards the protected ferry was the "bad guy". As he approached the group the orange boat closest to him swerved to face him, they ran directly at each other and shots were fired. A very exciting sideshow for my hike!

I absolutely love having these cuties visit our yard daily!

One of several waterfalls you can walk behind at Silver Falls State Park. It was a wonderful morning shooting with @pnw.zack and @montyuf 🍂

EVELVJ storms through Titlow beach under the Tacoma Narrows Bridge on a hot September afternoon.

Feels like 37 deg. but the sun's out!

Lovely green, lush ferns, trees and moss make my heart happy!

At low tide, the shoreline reveals what the sea leaves behind—stones, textures, and traces shaped by water and time.

The one thing I can say about the Pacific North West is that with a good sunset it becomes like another world.
