Two days ago I went on a bike ride near the C & O Canal and we walked to this old stone cutting mill. Rocks were cut at the Seneca Quarry and and down the canal, which ends in Georgetown, and used for many buildings and monuments. Seneca Red Sandstone is used for the Smithsonian Castle. Beautiful.
This is for photrablogger’s Mundane Monday #75. He has sand and this is sandstone.
I hiked with my aunt Pat in Covington, Virginia yesterday. The foliage is so different from the West Coast and I am enjoying the cicadas….
Another early morning photograph walking around my neighborhood: the bees were humming with joy in this lavender.
Evening at Lake Matinenda, in Ontario, Canada last summer. August 2015.
Sunset at Larrabee State Park last week.
This is for photrablogger’s Mundane Monday #72. Sunset at Larrabee State Park last week.
I took this at Larrabee State Park, from the short hike to the rocky coast. The sound is different from Port Townsend, because the San Juan Islands break up the fetch and the water was much calmer in the little bay. I am sure it is not always calm…..
My daughter and I spent four nights at Larrabee State Park this week and hiked down the Rock Trail and back up: http://www.wta.org/go-hiking/hikes/rock-trail
When birds chirp at me, I often talk back. Sometimes we have conversations. They think I have a terrible accent and also just talk nonsense. This Pacific wren was very vocal and right by the path. My young adult children are used to this, so my daughter just rolled her eyes and waited. After a while I got this photograph, hooray for zoom lenses and for delightful wrens.
Another photograph from last summer, at Lake Matinenda, Ontario, Canada. When the loons call I call back and sometimes we have a conversation….
This is for photrablogger’s Mundane Monday #70. I am thinking of the large standing circles in Britan. Maybe this is a young one.
As well as a stone circle having magic, the light seems magic as well.
