NW Washington has fabulous scenery - I thought I'd share five things this Friday with you, about NW WA.
1. We have lakes, rivers and the ocean
2. Rain
Which makes everything grow - like ferns on tree branches
Mushrooms
And blackberries everywhere - overtaking anything they come in contact with.
3. Sunsets
4. And flowers, do we ever have flowers!!
Fields of tulips
Masses of dandelions
And chairs to sit and view the fields of flowers
And flowering trees
5. And we've got Mt. Baker - from different angles
Gorgeous! Almost as beautiful as Canada. (Well, I have to be loyal, don't I?)
ReplyDeleteI found myself saying "Ahhhhh! Yes!" after I saw each shot. You caught so many wonderful things. Well done!
ReplyDelete#1 Great shots, I love the Loom.
ReplyDelete#2 Rain makes everything green and that's good.
#3 I love sunsets.
#4 Those tulip made me think that I was in Holland.
#5 Snow capped peaks are cool.

Washington State is a gorgeous state! I love the field of tulips and the views of the mountain. The ocean, lakes and birds are all wonderful too. Great collection of images. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteGreat selection of pix!
ReplyDeleteyou live in a beautiful part of the world! love that shot of the tulip field! have a great weekend and thank you for linking :)
ReplyDeleteMount Baker indeed- never forget that.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! Great random shares of such an interesting, beautiful area!
ReplyDeleteScrolling through these fabulous sights, I'm trying really hard not to be envious. That is the opposite of one of the virtures touted in the devotional I read this morning.
ReplyDeleteIt was fun to see the "other" side of our fair state. You know over on the SE side we have mountains too although not so big or grand. We have rivers, lakes, and waterfalls as well.
ReplyDeleteLet's just say WA is a gorgeous state all over. - I surely did enjoy your fabulous tour through that side though. Be sure to stop by because your chairs look mighty familiar.
JoAnn, all I can say is wow wow wow. What a beautiful group of photos!!
ReplyDeleteYour state has everything that America is all about. Mountains of majesty, fertile fields, sparkling water, a bounty of wildlife and waves of...well, tulips I guess!.....maybe not cactus plants or desserts, but certainly most everything else that makes this country so amazingly lovely!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos...love the one of the tulips...I would have a bouquet on every table if I had my way! Love their little bobbly heads, never know which way they will go.
ReplyDeleteThe dandelions are a reminder of what we will be fighting in another couple weeks...
Have a great week, JoAnn!
I just love all those scenes. (especially views of rivers and mountains and birds without thousands of meters of electric wires in the way).
ReplyDeleteWow, you even make the rain look lovely! We too enjoy the scenery in the PNW, it's a great place to live!
ReplyDeleteI've never spent time in your beautiful state so it's been nice to learn more about it. And I love the view of Mt. Baker...magnificent! Sweet hugs my friend, Diane
ReplyDeleteOMG -- what fabulous colors! Love the loon! I saw my first one in Minnesota many years ago. Thanks for joining in at R5F my friend!
ReplyDeleteNo question, one of the most beautiful places on the planet. Springtime must be utterly amazing. About as opposite the desert SW as you can get!
