Winter lights
Taken during a very early walk this week, with Elwha the cat.
The water turns yellow gold in the November sun in Port Townsend Bay.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: yellow.
Elwha wide awake.
The cats differ on when they want to go outside with harness and leash. Elwha would prefer 5 am, dark, because there are a lot less cars and it’s less scary. Garbage and recycling trucks are the worst. Sol Duc wants to wait until it is light so she can continue her careful study of bird habits and plan how to catch one. Elwha will bug me in the morning by about 5, while Sol Duc will refuse to come allow her harness to be put on. I add a headlamp around Elwha’s body, clipped to the harness. Sol Duc gets a small LED flashlight that hangs off her harness. Today they both went out early and wanted back in pretty quickly. I may take them out again later.

This is from yesterday, when Sol Duc went out after the sun rose.
Elwha is asleep on my lap. I am the one purring because he is out.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: asleep.
On Saturday, Wild Rose Chorale caroled downtown and I took pictures.

At four pm people started to gather at the tree for the lighting ceremony and the train.

Santa arrives on the Kiwanis Train and then we count down to the tree lighting!

And we have the advent of the lights.
Wild Rose has a concert this Friday in Port Townsend! Here: https://www.wildrosechorale.org/upcoming-concerts/
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: advent.
Still blooming downtown. Happy December!

I wanted to be
who he thought I was
until I didn’t.
I took the photograph on Marrowstone Island this month.
I was given an African violet for my birthday last March and it has not stopped blooming since. I’m not sure what I am doing right, since I haven’t had one before. Anyhow, it’s gloriously happy.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
I moved my geranium indoors and it is blooming happily.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
Fallen and leaching and still beautiful!
