stand down

I woke up around 3:30 this am, twelve minutes after a tsunami warning on my phone. Stand down, it has been cancelled. But I am glad that people were alerted, with the earthquake deep in the waters off Alaska.

Good morning and blessings.

Taken from Port Townsend, zoomed in on Marrowstone Island.

I love the water here, mountains, forests… home.
