Some day I hope the razor clams come back and we all can dig there again. Fond memories of digging there as a kid.

That’s one sketchy dude, bobbing and weaving, definitely playing games. Unvote him Portland.

Heading down that way tomorrow, not sure we will go to Cape D, but doing the 10k across the Astoria Bridge Sunday.

That’s a moon set actually, the pic I posted. ”Blood” moon, right after I rolled out of the tent in the morning.

OK I can match your sunrise with a morning full moon setting into the Pacific last March, Olympic National Park. #ParkChat #Hiking
The full blood moon setting into the Pacific Ocean over a gentle surf, surrounding thin clouds lit up by its glow.

Some kind of digital glitch today also screwed up ferries out of Anacortes to the Juans. 🫤

I don't have much faith he will sign it, that would be completely out of character.

Seems like he’s doing everything the Kremlin could want. Either a complete idiot, a traitor or both.

Tooberville, Schmitt, Boebert, Luna, the GOP is filled with incompetent nitwit buffoons. That's just the short list.

I was a reporter (in Seattle) in the 90s and newspapers then were making good profits, the internet had not destroyed class ad revenue yet. We had expense accounts and if your editor was good you could convince them to send you on expensive trips. But the storyline isn't plausible, it's Hollywood. 🙂

Grandson is learning guitar, I lent him my old one and after a couple days he sent me a recording of him playing Horse With No Name flawlessly. He has played drums for quite awhile.

Are you capturing them in mist nets and banding? We're seeing migrants showing up here in the NW as well, no warblers yet though.

They are magnificent trees when they get big, and in the rain forest their limbs host worlds within worlds of interdependent species. One of my favs.

Eye to eye with a redtailed hawk on this morning’s five-mile ramble. #Hiking #Birding #GetOutside #AltText
A large hawk is perched on a mossy limb of a dead willow and looking down right at the camera with its piercing eyes. Its breast and underside is a buff white with pretty rusty brown speckles across the breast. It has a curved and sharp beak, yellow near its face and sort of olive gray on the bend and point. You can see a sharp talon, and its tail below the limb.

Sad sad sad. If you go into the NW wilderness, especially the Enchantments, go prepared for hellacious weather. www.seattletimes.com/life/outdoor...

What we know about a hiker killed during snowstorm in the Enchantments
The snowstorm, which blanketed the highest elevations of the Cascades over the weekend, also left one hiker with severe hypothermia.

He’s gone, they’re rolling him in there simply for the vote, sick and sad.

I lost a lens cap the other day, it might be somewhere in the shintangle of Juanita Bay Park. But probably my vehicle swallowed it up somehow.

I worked with a political cartoonist who won a Pulitzer, David Horsey. Well, we didn't work together, but at the same newspaper for many years. They're colorful people I'd say.

Good story, political cartoonists are fading away, at least for newspapers. Love the blood quantum cartoon.

Looked fine as far as I could see. The good news is you’re a real human. One of the show’s next interviews was with an “AI actor.” 🫤
