Playing in the Sand Dunes

at the Washington Coast

Sharing with Top Shot

Out for an Afternoon Stroll

and surveying the scene

Home Sweet Home

No matter who

 what or where

there's no place like home

Happy Thanksgiving... my dear friends

~

Morning Sun

The fog slowly lifted

letting the sun shine through

Lake Sacajawea

~

Above the Clouds

Yet still on the ground ...

Near Mt St Helens

~

 

Sharing with Sweet Shot

They Bend and Sway

  And moan in the wind

 Coastal rainforests

magical and mysterious

~

Low Tide

Perfect

for beachcombing

~

Sun Going Down

Sunset over the Pacific

was amazing Friday night

I think the seagulls liked it too

~

Smashing and Crashing

Watching the waves roll in

~

Light and Shadow

and early morning

blue

~

Quiet Time

A time

to reflect

~

Let it Snow

Mt St Helens peeking through

with a fresh new

cover of snow

Sharing with Sweet Shot Tuesday

Seeing Green

Deep in a Coastal

  Rainforest

~

Stormy

Several storms are poised to roll in

off the Pacific

I love stormy weather

~

Gone With the Wind

A strong wind

and all but the stubborn leaves have fallen 

exposing the heavy cover of moss

 draped on nearly all our trees

~

Pixie Playground

If you're real lucky

you might sneak a peek

at giggling pixies

playing hide and go seek

~

Cloud Laden

in shades of blue

~

Beachcombing

The Columbia

is a busy river

Madame Butterfly

gliding through

~

Simplicity

Sometimes less

is more

~

Sunlit and Snowcapped

The Columbia River

and Mt St Helens

peeking through

~

Quiet Cove

Along the Oregon Coast

~

The Gorgeous Gorge

This is one of several 

waterfalls

along the Columbia River Gorge

Since I rarely know where I am

I'm clueless as to which this is

But it was spectacular

~

 

Ode to Summer

It's nice to look back

and remember

the sweet smells of summer

~

Morning Light

 The fog slowly lifted

allowing sun to shine through

Totally awesome

~

 

The Captivating Coast

 

Ever changing

always outstanding

The Oregon Coast 

~

 

Softly Swaying

A small delight

in the late afternoon

light

~

White River Canyon

Basically in the middle of nowhere

lies White River Canyon and Falls

with ruins from an old mill

A spectacular place 

definitely has

the WOW factor

~

Flamboyant Fall

So lovely

so short lived

so much to enjoy

soon we'll be saying

  so long

~

Rainforest Wonders

Stumbled across this stream

and bridge

wandering through

 a rainforest

I love the unexpected

~

The Falling Leaves

 

Where does the time go
