2017

Thinking of those affected by today’s crash near Olympia.

Digging back through the archives a bit more. Found this from our first visit to tulip country 12 years ago. On that day, we didn’t exactly get the sun we were hoping for. I shot this by leaning back in the car seat and focusing on the raindrops on our sunroof.

Foreboding sky.

I was on a sightseeing boat from Martinique to Saint Lucia. We drove straight into that storm ahead. It was the most audaciously violent ride I’ve had in any vehicle at any time in my life. Grateful for the fellow passenger who was willing to share her Dramamine. (I don’t normally need it but I did that day.)

Last fall, I took a trip to St. Lucia (island nation in the Caribbean). During my week there, I took a day trip to Martinique (next island to north, an overseas part of France) and was rewarded with this beauty. And then punished with a boat ride that puts all the turbulence I’ve encountered on every plane ride in my lifetime put together to shame.
