flower fields forever....

So lately i've been a little obsessed with taking pictures of flowers...that, and using the macro mode on my camera...lol. anyway, i finally have put a bunch of my pics in a collage (have you notice my other new obsession....collages??!!) for you all to enjoy!!

 

ahhh seattle....

so i had some fun with my camera while i was in seattle this past weekend. of course there are the ever so popular space needle pics that need to be included. there's this little garden thingy full of flowers right across the street from my school, a little bit of green in the middle of seattle cement.....it's called the p-patch as you can see below and a few of pics i've included are from there. also you will see the loverly cruise ship that i stare at while i eat lunch....every time i'm down for school the ship is there, taunting me, saying "ha ha you don't get to go on a cruise..."

anyway...enjoy!



 

sunset in everett

I took these pics a few days ago while in Washington for school....I stopped at a park near where my friends live and while i just missed the sunset, the sky was still pretty cool....and i love that there was a lone sailboat out for an evening ride 

elk mountain

pam and i took advantage of the amazing weather this long weekend and challenged ourselves with a hike up Elk Mountain. Whew did we get a workout.......but it was well worth it! the views were amazing, though i must apologize for the lack of clarity and the foggy valley below us.....welcome to the smog that settles in the Fraser Valley after many straight days of sunshine.

After dragging ourselves to the top of the mountain, we had lunch in the shade (the birds would come eat right out of your hand....see photo above), lounged around a bit and then gave our quads a good workout coming back down (thank you chad and theresa for letting us sit in your hot tub last night.....)

what a great day!!
