But, we found enough to split three ways. Our third lasted at least three meals.

Wonderful Mushrooms
Mmmm.... Not telling where we found these.

Orcas Island Weekend
Orcas wildlife seems to be unperturbed by humans. This heron and the deer we saw took notice but didn't do any work to put distance between us.
Leaves and water.
Gorgeous eagle.
We hiked to the top of Mt. Constitution, but the summit was completely enveloped in cloud (see left side). Nothing but whiteness in our view. On the way down we caught a bit of a vew from Little Summit.
Drama.

Pot Peak/Halloween
Blogger hasn't let me post pictures for a couple weeks, so these are late!
Pot Peak burned in 2003 plus or minus a year or two.
I didn't make it all the way to the top because I started late.
I liked the blackened bark, and the birds were thick feasting on inhabitants of the dead trees.

I love these guys.
Of course, Lynn and Barry are included under this heading, too, despite not appearing in the photos.
Bevan had grass seed in his socks and pants. That's where that look is coming from.
He tried to pick out the seeds.
I told him about picking grass seeds out of my favorite tennis shoes with tweezers earlier this year.

Tucson & Environs, c. 09.25.07
The views on the flight over were great, starting with Mt. Rainier.
One side of the building is tile, the other side looks like a normal office building.
Parking Garage + Palm Trees
Early the first morning, a panorama of sunlit cactus.
Saguaro
Saguaro with blossoms, too late really. The docent at the Desert Museum said the flower June-July. I saw one other cacus with blossoms at Sabino Canyon. No photo of that one; I was running.
San Xavier Mission, est. 1783

Mt. Pilchuck, Labor Day
Rock formations, chunks of mountain falling away.
At the top, clouds blowing up along the edge.
Fields of light stone.
So many mushrooms, but no chantarelles.

In Search of Summer
Golden grass, blue sky.
An interesting rock formation along the road.
From Echo Ridge (or thereabouts), looking south toward Lake Chelan
And, looking back the other way at clouds over dry hills.
To prove that I'm not always looking up, a pygmy short horned lizard.
