Bonus burned up classic Z. I can't tell if it is a 240 or 260 since the tail lights are gone. Being a Z lover (and owner) this is particularly sad.

"All Sundays" Number 42. This one is pretty somber showing massive fire damage from the Old Trails Fire in Spokane from August. Luckily no one died in any of the three fires that hit Spokane and the surrounding area.
A lamp post and a sign saying hazardous waste has been removed among many burned foundations with the sunrise barely visible on the horizon.

"All Sundays" number 41. The Cascades seen from a field near Ravensdale. Started getting some reddish hues on the underside of the clouds, which was nice.

"All Sundays" number 40. Austin Texas skyline seen from Austin High School. Absolutely dense cloud was covering the city since I had arrived on Thursday. I was hoping it would break but it didn't until Monday. Also, Zilker Park, my original photo spot, was completely closed. Such is life, haha.

"All Sundays" number 38. Ocean clouds at Kalaloch beach illuminated by the sunrise. I had wanted to get a shot of the "Tree of Life" but there was a huge bank of cloud that direction.

"All Sundays" number 37. It was raining heavily and I'm pretty sure the clouds stretched to Idaho. Stopped in Roslyn to look for something to shoot and got this of the Roslyn Theater, which I was pleased is showing Coyote vs Acme.

He's the dialect thing. I thought I'd be more southern since I have always felt my family talks like they are from another region. Also LOL at calling the grass between the sidewalk and road "parking".

"All Sundays" number 34. This was taken along the Naches River near highway 410. Had to go quite a ways to get our from under the clouds.

"All Sundays" number 33. Another panorama of Seattle. The 97% cloud cover really made this a blue image. Still a beautiful shot of the city.

3x (0.5 fps, sampled at 120 fps, playing at 30 fps) time lapse of the shore of Rattlesnake Lake during sunrise. This was taken with my LAOWA 9mm lens so I could get the mountain and where I anticipated the sun to be in the frame.

"All Sundays" number 32. Rattlesnake Ledge seen from Rattlesnake Lake. I attempted to do another time lapse, which I'll post in the replies. Overall a completely clear morning, which would be nice if it didn't make the sunrise a little bland.
Panorama of Rattlesnake Ridge illuminated by the sunrise.  Shaded trees are in the foreground and the sky is a pure blue.

"All Sundays" number 31. This is taken from "City view Park" in West Seattle. Another completely cloudy day, haha. This time, I took a time lapse of 1746 images, of which this is one. This video begins 5 minutes after dawn, until ~30 minutes after Sunrise: youtu.be/RV57FyMvuGk

"All Sundays" number 30. Unnamed peak near Naches Peak Loop Trail, seen from Highway 410. It was completely overcast so I took a risk by going up Chinook Pass again. Luckily the clouds ended on the other side of the mountains.

We remodeled the kitchen in our last house ourselves. I always wanted a red wall so I painted one. When we listed the house we kept getting told to paint that wall white by the realtors. I told them to fuck off if they want a white wall the buyer can paint it. Photo taken as we were moving out.

"All Sundays" number 28. Naches Peak seen from Chinook Pass. We were ascending into heavy cloud on the Mt. Rainier side so I was worried there wouldn't be any visibility on the pass side. Luckily there was some brightness peaking through.

"All Sundays" Number 26. Today was... Completely grey. I had thought this view of Bellevue from Luther Burbank Park would be nice, but the clouds just did not cooperate. This does mark half way through the year though, only 26 more to go!

"All Sundays" Number 25. This is a view of Mt. Spokane that I've returned to several times over the years. I was lucky that the Solstice landed on Sunday this year. I was hoping for more clouds to make the sky more dynamic but alas. Took me a bit to process this one so it's a week late.

So my car had a "fwoomp" noise Wednesday night and then said "Engine Malfunction". Apparently the malfunction was that the intake charge pipe just popped off the intercooler. 🫠 It got bit into by the alternator pulley.
