Mt Baker, WA

This is absolutely one of the most beautiful areas in Washington State. Yesterday we visited Nooksack Waterfall. I'm posting photos. The views are spectacular. There are remnants of giant trees cut down sometime around the turn of the century.

From Nooksack we drove to the top of Mt Baker (photos of snow covered top) to a place called 'Artist's Point'. There simply are no words for the grandeur of this area. My son and husband are avid sportsmen...so, they decided to ride their bikes!!! I am posting photos so you can see how much they enjoyed their 22 mile ride. I was white knuckled all the way, especially since my husband failed to wear his helmet (sometimers, he says). Had to photograph his hair that was standing straight up after a few miles of the wind blowing through it.

All in all it was a wonderful day. Wish you all could be here. We head home tomorrow.

Inspiration...

I have been following Stephen Baird's blog. Stephen is a wonderful, prolific photographer who seems to travel a LOT. His photos are inspiring. If you have time, take a look at his site.

In the meantime, I thought I'd post a some of my Oregon shots. What a beautiful country. The diversity of this state is unbelievable. Anyone who can, should visit Oregon. I'm posting an ocean scene sunset, a lighthouse shot, a shot taken in the Redwoods on the southern most tip of the Oregon Coast (my husband is in the one shot) and a shot of a conch tree we found. It was covered from top to bottom with conchs. Some of the shots were taken in the fog. (There is a lot of mist and fog in this area of Oregon.)
