Moon Over Mountain

Twilight hits Mount Baker and the moon rises high in the sky.

 



Peace of the Sky

This playground equipment frames the beautiful late summer sky.  September has graced us with a little more summer, but you can sure feel that chill of fall in the mornings and evenings.

Sunflower Sky

 

A sunflower reaches for the sky.

Kind of Blue...

...just like one of my favorite jazz albums.

This will be our only post this weekend, as we're leaving today for camping at South Whidbey State Park.

I hope everyone enjoys their weekend as much as we're going to!

Skywatch Friday: Fractured Sky

Bare winter trees mimic many things:

a map of an ancient city, a dry lake bed, or the veins of the eye.

Doorway to Downtown

Behind this door you'll find

wintered salty air

gulls settling in on the docks

theater-goers in hats and scarves

the sun fading at 4 o'clock

and me

going home to dinner in the crock-pot.

Corn Maze

Corn tassels reach for the sky at a corn maze near Lynden, WA.

Reach for the Sky

EjVig took this lovely shot of the moss growing on our garage roof. We should probably clean it off... but it is rather pretty.

Window Washer-- Skywatch Friday

There's something sort of peaceful about window washers-- they're slow and steady, forced to be careful and take their time. No rushing here. Plus, he must have a great view. Mostly, though, it reminds me of this Barenaked Ladies song I've always liked, "When I Fall."

It's Skywatch Friday! Go see some skies.

Skywatch Friday: Above the Clouds

The San Juan Islands float on clouds,

never touching the water below.

Duchess in the Sky

I took this at the edge of the Van Boven Gravel Company. Our friends' land borders the quarry, and their dog Duchess apparently enjoys watching the machines below.

I had a great time camping but am so glad to be back in Bellingham!
