White Giant Allium


This entire row of allium stalks bends to track the sun each day. They'll explode into orange-sized globes soon.

Albert the Bald Eagle


Albert, or possibly his mate Eva, commands a fine view over Union Bay from a favored lamppost on SR520. Crows hassle him at every opportunity.

In a different world, but on the same bridge, Microsoft employees cross Lake Washington to get to work. There are incoherent protests against these shuttle buses; apparently some would prefer replacing them with many more single vehicle occupancy cars.

Double Rainbow


This rainbow was visible from our window for perhaps 10 minutes following heavy rain. Note the inverted spectrum of the fainter double rainbow above.

First Morning


This was the first morning home with our newborn son.

For readers who know me, ask and I'll share a link to our baby pictures and videos.  Irregular anonymous photo blogging will continue here.

Polish Home Association


Kielbasa, pirogi, kapusta, and golumpki await consumption at a Polish Home Association dinner. A sip of Żubrówka bison-grass vodka completes the meal. The atmosphere was excellent, and the food was tasty.

New Puppy


There's a new dog on our block! Our neighbor acquired this labradoodle, and he's pretty adorable.
