I'm old and well travelled having lived in Australia, UK, Germany, Canada and now the US. I lived 42 years in the American South before finally deciding a couple of years ago to settle in the Pacific NW which I like a lot. I grew up in Adelaide.
We finally get to ride the northern Lightrail (LINK) extension to Pioneer Square this time. It’s going to take some 30 minutes.

I need to remember the photos that I’ve already taken. These two were taken next to the Edmonds, Washington, Pier a couple of months apart with different cameras; top is a Sony A6000 and below is a Panasonic Lumix LX5.

A photo taken on the Little Bear Trail near Chelan. We decided to stop here before heading back to Seattle yesterday and we managed to get in a good walk as well as take some photos of wildflowers.

Here we are in [Winthrop](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winthrop,_Washington) on the Eastern edge of the Northern Cascades just a little over two week since returning from Japan. I need to write some entries about that trip before too long!

Rookie mistake. I started taking photos with my Nikon camera only to have a message coming up on the screen telling me that I didn’t have a memory card installed. So here’s a photo taken earlier today from my iPhone.

A couple of photos from late afternoon today as the sun was setting here in Edmonds. I also appreciate low tide days since it’s an opportunity for some beachcombing.

I got down to Richmond Beach this afternoon just as the sun was setting. Nothing like the golden hour for good light.

I went for a walk along the Marina here in Edmonds this afternoon but the slight breeze made it so uncomfortably cold that I decided to truncate my outing. Here’s a picture however, before I headed back to the car.
