Snoqualme Valley


Coming back from looking at a Camp Caroline might go to, i saw the valley looked really nice so I pulled over and took a picture with my iphone. Then I ran it through an app that enhances the color, and then i tweeked the color again in picasa. I think it came out nice.

Banff and Glacier Trip


Great trip to see Banff and Glacier NP. We drove across eastern Washington and spent the night on Coeur'dalene ID. From there we drove north up the western side of the Canadian Rockies. We crossed over and spent a week in Banff where we met up with David, Ginger, Rachael, and Michael. Then we drove south to Glacier MT. and then back home. It was a wonderful trip. Eastern Washington is a desert it reminded me of parts of New Mexico.

Falling Water


While we in PA for a Wedding, we went to see Falling Water - Frank Lloyd Wright's masterpiece. We saw a lot of similarity with Talliasen West in construction material and technique. His spaces are some warm and inviting.
