We should have moved this pot before the condo walls were cleaned with bleach.

A good place for a breakfast when in Chelan WA.
A photo taken on the Little Bear Trail near Chelan. We decided to stop here before heading back to Seattle yesterday and we managed to get in a good walk as well as take some photos of wildflowers.
Happy with the results of my eye exam. The next appointment is not for another 7 months, when I have an annual visual field scan.
Another visit to the optometrist.
We ate Mexican food here in Chelan last night. In a couple of months this place will be teaming with summer tourists but for now not so much. As a retired couple we have the luxury of travelling off season!
We are presently at Chelan where we are spending the night before heading back to Seattle.
I've been using the Mood iPhone camera app for the last month or so. The pictures that I took in Winthrop and future shots that I publish will probably also be taken with this app. I’m enjoying using it with its different “film” modes.
Today we headed south from Winthrop towards the somewhat larger town of Chelan. On the way we stopped to check out the view over the Wells Salmon Hachery from the Wells Dam Rest Area And Information Center. This place is nicely showcasing the work done on the dam and how the environment has been preserved. I learned a lot about salmon ladders, for example.
And another photo from Winthrop. We always like to check out the bookstores wherever we go.
Here we are in Winthrop on the Eastern edge of the Northern Cascades just a little over two week since returning from Japan. I need to write some entries about that trip before too long!
I just checked some of my old notes and I see that I had a blood test back in 2016 that showed antibodies for measles and mumps. Good to know that I have immunity after being exposed sometime as a child in the late ’40s or ’50s.
As usual low tides are always good for patterns.
My teeth cleaning appointment at the dentist yesterday could have turned out better, although it’s probably for the best. Today I was back getting a temporary crown with the permanent coming in a few days.
Beach reflections at low tide here on a sunny Edmonds afternoon.
A protest of a few hundred people happened in Edmonds yesterday. A lot of this sort of thing happening around the country at the moment.
Good to see that tapbots is developing a client called Phoenix for Bluesky
Worth a read if you are interested in accurate weather forecasts.
She describes the interaction exactly as I heard and saw it.
And more color appearing on the landscape.
I’m finally getting to see some hints of spring around here. Walking along the Edmonds shoreline yesterday I came across these.
Actually I meant Lightroom adaptive profiles.
My guilty pleasure is listening to library Audio “Alex Rider books as a 76 year old. He’s a kind of 14 year old James Bond. The author is Anthony Horowitz of “Foyles War”, etc fame.
Discovering the joys of Adobe Lightroom’s new adaptive presets.
