Washington received quite a bit of wintery weather this last week. It’s always fun to get out and brave the weather for the beautiful white scenery!
I spent a beautiful day at Grayland Beach State Park near Grayland, Washington. It was so gorgeous with a slight breeze. I need to go there more often!
I went camping at South Whidbey Island State Park last month with my family. Here is a photo of my grandson proudly showing off his first fish.
I visited the Oregon Zoo in Portland recently. I really enjoy photographing animals. I especially love seeing the children’s fascination!
Greg Lange of Draftworks Horse Logging answers questions at the 2011 Mother Earth News Fair in Puyallup, Washington.
My husband and I spent the weekend at the Mother Earth News Fair in Puyallup. We went to a number of workshops that were presented. Some of the workshops we attended covered topics on natural and green building, passive solar, mini-hydro power, solar power, heritage breed farming, fencing, pollinators, and apple grafting. We also watched earth oven and horse logging demonstrations, looked at a number of exhibits and listened to keynote speakers Joel Salatin and Dan Chiras. We will definitely go again!
Blue camas wildflowers and a blue sky with clouds on the prairie at Glacial Heritage Preserve in Littlerock, Washington, USA.
I spent a few hours at Glacial Heritage Preserve near Littlerock on Prairie Appreciation Day. There were a lot of exhibitors from various conservation groups and agencies. I had some very interesting conversations about mason bees, Sustainable Prisons Project, and learned that you can make ink from oak galls. I was also thrilled that the weather cleared up and we had some interesting clouds!
Still working on Procession photos!
