Whidbee

Cardoon (AKA “artichoke thistle”) in Langley, Washington

We had something of a flexivacation this year. I previously mentioned how we couldn’t go to Jasper as originally planned. Our last couple of nights were supposed to be in Winthrop, Washington for us to explore North Cascades National Park. Alas, wildfires once again got in the way, closing Highway 20. We cancelled our reservations and made last minute arrangements for a couple of nights on Whidbey Island where today’s photo was taken.

I probably took today’s photo because earlier in the same year Kampfar put out an outstanding album (Ofidians Manifest) with the inspiration for the medusa painting as the cover.

Middle Fork of the Smith River

This past Sunday, we planned to hike Mt. Eddy with some friends. However, we woke up to AQI above 100 both in Ashland and near Mt. Eddy so we scraped that idea. Instead, we went to the California Redwoods where the AQI was less than 10. On our way back along the Redwood Highway, we pulled off at Panther Flat to check out the Smith River from there, and the above photo is the result.
