A Winter "Crook"ing

January 18th, 2009

Sunshine finally rained down upon us this weekend it was warmly welcomed. This is a tree in a park near my living quarters which has visibly grown sideways its whole life. After walking around the area, there is no visible sign as to why it has done so, being it is the only tree in the park growing as such.

The Rains of Winter Bring Spring Beauty

January 10th, 2009

Raining still in the world of Western Washington, however, immersed in winter, I can't help to look to the beauty of spring with all the rain and moisture we have been getting. I was up hiking near Snoqualmie , and couldn't help but just look at everything in amazement. Landslides were abundant, with downed trees and instant streams, which will be featured later this week.
