Beach fall colors

We are having wet cool cloudy dark days and then bright blue sunny but still fairly cool days. I took this on a beach walk last week at the top of the stairs at Fort Worden. Gorgeous!

Garden of color

Taken downtown. Our only native maple are big leaf maples and vine maples, but there are many non-native planted ones. They are certainly gorgeous.

With the sunset

Last evening my daughter and I were on the Kitsap Peninsula for a kayak excursion. The sunset was gorgeous. Then the mosquitoes came out: itchy. We were happy once we were in our boat!

For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: Itch!
