*The new Feminism is actually anti-woman. Guest author Mark Steyn on how modern feminists see Islamic Rape-gangs (illegally in Europe, invited in by governments)

This article for us Mark Steyn Cub members relates very well how today's so-called Feminists have stopped supporting ordinary women, ignoring the total degradation of "asylum-seekers" who rape women and girls all over Europe. Leftists are Leftist First, everything else later, including feminist. ~I'm old enough to remember when stand-up comedians did rape jokes. Not …

A little something good from Washington State, for a change. Beauty in the Skagit Valley.

Earlier this week, Hubby and I had a little getaway to LaConner, situated on the Swinomish Channel. It’s a long tidal channel northwest of Seattle. On the West side of the Channel is the Swinomish Indian Reservation, and on the West side is the picturesque town of LaConner. We go there often, as it’s only …

I just found some old photos and uploaded them. Flying!

In August of 2001, just after I started dating my now-husband, he rented a small airplane, and we flew from Everett to Friday Harbor in the San Juan Islands. Here are some of the pictures I took from the co-pilot seat in the Cessna 182, and on the ground. Snohomish County and Mount Baker Anacortes …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #314: Shorelines

Living in the Pacific Northwest, we have lots of shorelines within a few minutes, or hours drive. And we have lakes and rivers, which also have shorelines, along with the oceans. The shoreline closest to me is along Silver Lake. This was early in the morning on my way to work. About 50% of the …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #215: Planes, Trains, Automobiles and ?

Ooh, this is going to be fun!  I have been a transportation buff since the mid-1980s, when I spent a year as an apprentice to a transportation consultant.  Whenever I see a train, I try to watch it until it is out of sight.  Living in the Pacific Northwest surrounded by bodies of water, we …

Lens-Artists Photo Challenge #207: Seeing Double

Double trouble.  Double indemnity.  Double-cross.  My photos for "seeing double" aren't all reflections, but they are all double.  How about this formidable pair of musicians, the Eyer Sisters? Both young ladies are excellent musicians, and they stole the show at the Accordion Celebration this year. On my outings to the new Waterfront Place development on …

CFFC-Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge, Reflections and Shadows

So, what motivated my friend Cee to choose reflections and shadows for this week's fun challenge?  I see, she fell right into my hands...  Reflections and shadows are some of my very favorite photographic subjects! Bodies of water are excellent for reflections, aren't they?  Especially if the water is flat, mirror-like.  The waters of Silver …

Photo Challenge….Serene

At the marina on the Inner Harbour of Victoria, British Columbia, this morning shot of the boats, and the very calm water.  Gentle ripples, and no one stirring this early.  The world seemed to be holding its breath. I loved the boats-such a wide variety, with no two even remotely alike. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/serene/
