In the Warmth of Summer

How nice a warm summer day is . . .

With a breeze that's balmy enough for shorts and t-shirts.

Arrival

The ferry landing at night . . .

It's worthwhile to come before the ferry arrives, when it's so quiet that you can hear the murmur of the water, and a gull's call carries across the inlet.

How gracefully the ferry glides to shore, its lights ablaze, the water churning.

Pleasing to the Eye

Today in Port Townsend I was intent on -- enjoying Port Townsend.  But halfway through the afternoon I realized that I need souvenirs of the day.

What would I photograph with my smart phone?  No idea.

But Port Townsend is full of surprises.

I've passed this little marina dozens of times.  But on this summer afternoon it was bright with light and color.
