I love the “mohawk” look of these birds.
Just up the foothills from Sequim are hundreds of acres homesteaded in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s. This is one original cabin still standing.
I am often mesmerized by the fog. I love the way it dances in between trees and buildings. I could watch it for hours.
The Jefferson County Courthouse majestically overlooks Port Townsend Bay and the entrance to Admiralty Inlet. Approved for construction in 1890 by the
Jefferson County Commissioners, the Romanesque style courthouse, brainchild
of Seattle architect W. A. Ritchie, was let out to contractors at an estimated cost of $150,000.00.

It has snowed twice already in 2024 here. (I managed to miss the BIG week of snow in January) I woke up to this–the forecasters said sun all day. THE PNW forecasting job would be a great one. You can be right less than 50% of the time and still keep your job! It is very difficult to forecast here because we are the first place all weather disturbances hit first. Then they more predictably flow across the US. The snow is pretty, but I prefer to go visit IT on my own terms. Living here mean usually I can drive just 10-30 minutes and be in snow all winter.
The best way to experience the majestic scenery of the Waimakariri Gorge is in a Alpine Jetboat Thrills excursion, about an hour from Christchurch toward the ski slopes.
These boats jet boats can run in just a few inches of water.
