This last Photo Challenge of 2023 is supposed to be your best photos of the year. I think I was exceptionally fortunate to be on the roof of the Bellevue Square parking garage on a clear day at the end of December. The Mountain (Mount Rainier) was out in all its splendor. I'm proud of …

I was thrilled to see the topic for this week's Challenge, as I own some items that are completely unique. The first one is a piece of art, which I inherited from my parents. I remember telling them when I was a teenager that, when they died, I insisted on getting this, and I did …

I just love watching out for funny or original signs, and they seem to be just about everywhere. In the 1980s, there was a popular TV series called Twin Peaks, that was filmed in the local town of North Bend, in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains. The town takes full advantage of that little …
