Specifically, one particular stretch of vine maples; a couple stands of sumac trees, and a smattering of color now visible along the mountainsides in places-well it all smacks of the fall season and all that comes with it. The only thing…elizabethbit in # actifit • 2 days ago • 2 min readMondays Are Mondays Sometimes 😏……....North Cascade WanderingsDog gone it-it’s Monday. Whereas I don’t normally mind it too much, today could have been better. Phoenix looks likes she’s feelin’ it as well. That being said, I’ve decided to do a black and white Monday. Here’s that same photo of Phoenix.

Our morning began at church. Pastor Kyle is indeed, anointed and gave a stellar sermon on 2 Peter, chapter two. Lots of food for thought….. Lately, we’ve had an abundance of varying critters in our yard. A few weeks ago, we had a skunk 🦨 and a possum. Of course, the deer are ongoing, but this week we’ve got…elizabethbit in # actifit • 4 days ago • 2 min readIt's The Last Day……….....North Cascade WanderingsHappy Caturday everybody! 😻 Today is the last day of the Northwest Washington Fair. I’m sure it’s been an exciting and exhausting 10 days for all of the participants who were there every day. The animals too. 🥱 It rained today which got me to thinking about where those who chose to go today, might seek shelter.

Wednesday-hump day-my Monday. It’s always hard to get back in the groove and today was no different.

However first, a stop at the dentist for a post-op appointment. All looks good, so off @silvertop and myself went! We always park in front of one of his old coworkers home and hoof it to the fair. I’d purchased our tickets last night online, so we went in the pre-paid gate.
