Images from a foggy day...

The fog was intense this morning -- which meant I had an opportunity to get this great shot of the Spit Wad; don't you love the way the crow just leaped in at the last minute?

 I love the poppies the Thatchers planted just as you round that first bend...



And I wanted to publicly thank Kevin Lee's father for doing such a great job of stabilizing the mailboxes -- we look almost organized!




Speaking of which -- does anyone know who took the time to weed-whack around the mailboxes this week?  They look a hundred percent better, so thank you, whoever you are!

Walt Billing


We've just learned that Walt Billing passed away June 20th; you may remember him as the man who owned the little blue A-frame down at our end. He spent his latter years in that house sitting in the living room watching his wonderful view of the Sound and waving to us when we went on our nightly dog walks, and was sorely missed when he moved away. We send our condolences to his daughter, Christine Campion.
