Other Peoples' Weather

It's good to be out of the GPNW.  Two days ago there was a water spout on Hood Canal.  Yesterday there was biblical hail in Issaquah.  Today it's raining everywhere and there are flood watches on almost all of the rivers.  This is the weather map, green is rain.  Yellow is heavier rain.


We did a short hike yesterday.  It was pitiful.  We're out of shape, and our feet are soft.  There will have to be reacquisition of calluses on the feet.  It was a beautiful day.  I will confess to saturating the color a little bit.


I have nothing to write about, other than we went to Costco and Jim saw the dermatologist with predictable results; it was the attack of the cheese grater.

  1. How times have changed! When we vacationed "out west" in my childhood, my dad, the great photographer, snapped on his polaroid filter for most every shot.

  2. I am in that squall that you picture above. It actually is quite beautiful. I am told that I will get tired of the rain, and I'm sure that it's true. But for now, I will enjoy it.

  3. The PNW seems to be getting back to the old days of rain rain rain. Nice that you are in the sunshine.

  4. I imagine you'll have your hiking feet back soon enough.

  5. It's been pretty dry in my part of it, which is Oregon Coast Range. I though am eager to get back to Tucson. It won't happen soon as we still have cattle to market :(

  6. Yeesh -- that rain! Better the cheese grater than the alternative, right?

  7. I love saturating the color on my photographs. It actually looks more like what my eye sees in real life when I do. The blue of that sky is fabulous.
