Cascadia Mushrooms

Are those gigantic mushrooms or is that miniature shopping cart? Chanterelles mushrooms are displayed in a fun and whimsical fashion at the Bellingham Farmers Market.

What I wake up to every day...


One nice thing about summer turning to fall is cutting down the overgrown wisteria and once again enjoying our lake view.

I am very excited to be joining Bellingham Daily Photo. I hope I can share a new perspective of our wonderful city.

Weekend Reflections: Aftermath


When the little hands and shouts have joy have all gone,
there's finally time to sit and reflect.

Tomorrow Bellingham Daily Photo will feature the first post by our newest contributor...
Welcome to Bellingham Daily Photo Lorelle!

Sacrilege?


Years ago, a car salesman drove me through the winding roads of Bayview Cemetery to demonstrate the handling abilities of a sports car both of us wanted me to have.  

The ride was exhilarating, but I couldn't shake the feeling we had disrespected the spirit of  the place.

Upside Down


She's always been happiest upside down.  When she was a baby and nothing else would soothe her, I'd walk around the house with her tucked upside down against my chest until the tears passed.  And still when I get home from work I'm often greeted with "Daddy! Daddy! Upside down?"

Happy trails to you...

...until we meet again.

It's not really goodbye goodbye. Still, I have so much going on I just can't keep up with it all. I don't want to give up running, school, writing, or family and friends, so I'm afraid it has to be Bellingham Daily Photo that goes. Luckily, Eli and my good friend Lorelle are working out a time-share arrangement with BDP, so they'll keep it going together. I'm excited to see the fresh ways they'll each look at Bellingham and share it with you. It's amazing how there's always something new to see just around the corner, and how everyone sees something different about our beautiful town. Thank you, Lorelle and Eli!

Although I can't keep up with a daily photo blog, I can't give up the blogging habit entirely (nor do I want to!). I'll just be over at what is my currently oft-neglected blog, lizziviggi and the life worth living, and I'll make sure it's not quite so neglected.

I hope to see you there, old friends.

Wilson Library


Western Washington University's Wilson Library where I spent many long afternoons hunched a textbook trying to absorb the material.  And by "absorbing" I mean napping!
