Was out with friends camping at #FortCasey #WA a couple months back. The winds were howling and the rain was intense in the beginning; but a wonderful break in the the weather allowed for some great lighting just as the #WSDOT ferry set off for #PortTownsend.

A three strory vehicle and passenger ferry vessel in a livery of emerald green and white from the Washington Department of Transportation setting sail on choppy wind blown water. Photo is taken on a grassy overlook at the water's edge. In the background, one rainbow is visible in it's bright vivid full spectrum and a faint secondary rainbow trails alongside.

Near #PortTownsend, WA? Into #vinyl? We happened upon a great place to check out: Quimper Sound. Awesome prices and great selection.

Crow on asphalt, bending down to pick at something in a tiny puddle. A bit of grass in the lower right corner.

#HoodCanalBridge is closed to vehicle traffic until further notice, per #WSDOT. This #EV driver starting a journey in #PortAngeles is saving electricity, but not time, by taking ferries back towards #Seattle via #PortTownsend and #ClintonWA. It’s a beautiful day to sit motionless in Washington, at least.

A full moon rising behind clouds, over trees, across water, behind rocks, near a post.

It’s nettle season!

I don’t count it as spring until the first nettle soup.

Close up photo of about eight small nettle plants on a forest floor, with twigs and several blades of grass.

A nettle meadow among trees, mostly shady except for a tiny bit of tree and light green leaves in the sun, towards the back.

נוהגת מערבה
אל תוך השקיעה
לבד במכונית
ידי בידך.

שפתי בשפתיך,
שלובות בשקיקה
זרועות נשמתי
מוכנות לנשיקה

השמש שוקעת
רחוק, בים,
ואני כמוה
שוקעת שם.

#PortTownsend #love

Driving west
Into the setting sun
Alone in the car
Our hands as one.

My lips embrace yours
As I drive up the hill
Over its crest
Our arms kiss, still.

The sun is setting
Out there, at sea
A pale echo of you
It sinks into me.

Getting a #motorcycle / #scooter really has opened up some of my old cycling routes for me. I'm able to get shots that I normally wouldn't have gotten on the bicycle due to time constraints. #WhidbeyIsland #KitsapPeninsula #PortTownsend

Old ferry dock, Port Townsend, Washington

The remains of an old ferry dock in the water

Took a break from the craziness of the world to breathe, reconnect with nature, eat good food, and have some genuine human connection. I highly recommend meeting up with your soul healing kind of friends, singing loudly, and taking way too many pictures of landscapes.

Struck off on a walk down North Beach without first checking the tide table. Next high tide is in 7 hours, thankfully. :blobcatfearful: #porttownsend

Today's journal entry is a tribute to Lorraine Ferra -- one of my earliest writing mentors, who is to this day a daily companion in my writing and creative practice. Sending love and condolences to her spouse Deborah and those closest to her. The world lost a light on December 23rd.

The sun set today, and I got to watch a bird watch it do so.

#PortTownsend #birds

A great blue heron standing on a structure of piles and concrete poking up out of the water. Clouds over wooded hills across the water, the sun is setting.

There is a lone duck off to the right, a tiny speck of a thing in the photo.

Red and green lights cover the night sky; across the water we see the lights of Whidbey Island.

I love that this week OUR weather is back, temperate and crisp, with wild variations as the day goes on.

This is a significant improvement over the sameness of a warm, blue sky, cloudless summer, which feels like it belongs quite a few hours south of here.

Welcome back, autumn. Stay a while.
