Our View

The obligatory old red truck, favorite perch of gargoyle kitties.


A thunderstorm on its way for a visit.


Mt. Baker. Did you know that Baker and Rainer used to be a couple? He took up with Shuksan and Rainer stormed off in a huff (who wouldn't?). She settled down in King County where she is far away, but can still keep an eye on her kids, the Twin Sisters. For more local mountain lore, you may enjoy reading The Measure of a Mountain: Beauty and Terror on Mount Rainer by Bruce Barcott, from whom I gleaned this little tidbit.
