Afternoon, Amy and Company.

Awaiting a projected thunderstorm to hit the northern valley. Had lightning and little rain Thurs and our drive back from the VA center in Palo Alto. What a humbling experience to be surrounded by so many fellow vets. Mrsdd said told me we didn't have enough time for me to go around shaking hands with all my comrades, but the will and desire were there.

Thought I'd share a couple more photos from our recent trip north. Here's one taken at Riverfront Park in Spokane, site of the '74 World's Fair...

This next one is an interesting view of Mt. Shasta in NoCalif (elev. 14,162 ft), a "halo" on the peak formed by a cloud. This shot is a western exposure looking east. I took pix from the south, west and north of the mountain. It was interesting to see the way the cloud and prevailing winds effected the peak of Shasta...

Any rain yet? We had very light sprinkles. Hope we get some rain tonight.

I love your pictures. We visited Spokane a few years ago and were impressed with that area.

But I think winters get too cold for this California gal.

I just about missed those pictures....they are lovely also!
And your little grandson, Studly, is precious. My brother and SIL in Georgia have a yorkie and her name is Starla. And is she a spoiled baby, but so sweet. And yorkie has a very darling one.
