A trip to Snoqualmie Falls proved to be quite an adventure for my best four legged friend. Rather than wade through the Black Friday crowds, we chose a forty minute trip to one of Washington state's most popular attractions. Before heading to the waterfall, we decided to hike one of the trails. 

I love the smell of leaves and pine needles thick and wet against the earth! Sun beams filtered through the trees and hit the moss as it overtook giant trees decaying back into the ground from where they began…

But wait!…Something strange from above. What is that sound? 

Why it is the rare and elusive (Well at least in downtown Seattle!) red headed woodpecker!

Astounding glimpse of nature for one and all!

Every trip to Seattle Aquarium on Pier 59 in downtown Seattle is a fun adventure. Each time I go, I discover something I haven't seen on my last visit.

Today I really enjoyed the coral reef displays, with their vibrant sea anemones and the amazing assortment of coral inhabitants that live in our Pacific waters. 

Orange Cup Coral has a different life than tropical coral because of the cold water it lives in. They build their reefs by creating an outer skeleton and fastening itself to a rock, where it stays for life.

As I step into the Dome Exhibit, there is an immediate realization that I am the one who is under water! 

How wonderful to be resting beneath local marine life and witness first hand how schools of Salmon, Ling Cod, and Sharks live in our Seattle waters. Starfish, Sturgeons and other fish that call the Pacific Northwest home are fun to watch for kids and grown ups alike!

Each visit to Seattle Aquarium is an adventure different from the last, and I always enjoy my trips to Pier 59, with astounding views off Elliot Bay, the wonderful waterfront shops and eateries, and my favorite, Seattle Aquarium.

A trip to Seattle Aquarium requires the ability to stay sharp if you don't want to miss any of the exciting exhibits on a busy day! 

After making my way in from the Pier 59 entrance, which is always a wonderful waterfront sight to behold, I headed for the coral tanks to see if I could manage some entertaining photos. Looking up gave me the opportunity to see up close and personal how big a local six gill Shark is,

looming above me with his menacing double rows of pointed saw blade teeth and eerie sort of grin. 

You can be sure, I don't want to meet this sort of fellow on my next Elliot Bay boating excursion!

We may not recognize them as the stand beside us at the light, sit next to them on a bus, pass them on the street or in a store, but they are among us. The ones who volunteered to give everything they had to serve our country.

To them, we owe our freedom. 

To them, we owe our way of life.

To those among us, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice for us,

THANK YOU...

Taking the ferry to Bainbridge Island is always a pleasure! Bainbridge Island is a beautiful place with a quaint hamlet feel and the ride over can be an adventure, if you choose to partake in the outdoor decks rather than enjoying the warm lounge areas offering caffeine, snacks and the ever popular eight dollar glass of beer!

Being the adventurous sort, I chose to enjoy the outdoor decks, exploring the two open levels, observing which gave me the best vantage to shoot some photos of Downtown Seattle looming on the horizon. I enjoy Elliot Bay and mountain views daily from my downtown home, making the view of city lights at night a delightful luxury to me!

The invigorating salt air, blustery nudge of the wind and light rain, only enhanced the trip back for me, while I drank in the ever closer visual of twinkling lights.

As we began our disembark, I couldn't help but observe that views of our beloved Emerald City are appreciated even by those who get to see them every day!

It was inevitable that I would find a way to get out and stroll among the vibrant colors of fall in Seattle with camera in hand before all of the trees were bare. The autumn leaves of red and gold have been calling me to join them, their haunting melody returning softly to remind me that time will not stand still to wait for me…

So here we are, enjoying a typical fall day in the Emerald City. Blustery, wet, with a hint of damp cedar clinging in the air. As one who truly loves this climate, the adventure was perfect, as we shared the splendor of a season changing…
