Boundless blue beauty

Here's a photo taken earlier this week--Wednesday afternoon--looking out over Puget Sound. The long low bit is Bainbridge Island. Behind it, the Olympics.

As you can see, it was a beautiful day, an absolute gift. Cold, though. So, while the sun was bright and I was feeling pleased with the world for a variety of reasons, I didn't hang about.

Forecast this weekend: snow (we are in a convergence zone). Ah, but I had this. For a few hours, I saw bright, bright blue.

  1. Beautiful photo.
    We are definitely lucky here in Seattle to have such sights.

  2. Cassidy, several times a week I find myself thinking: I can't believe I live here! Sometimes it feels like a dream, a moment from some fantasy novel. And this was just a quick snap taken with my phone. Astonishing.

  3. I love what you have put into words here. So many people (not from here) only know Seattle for the rain. There is sooo much more. I love being able to see Mt Rainier (when she is out) and seeing the mountain ranges in the distance. It is such a lovely place to live. Even when it does rain, some of the cloud formations are just phenomenal.
