From the Elk Flats and Devil’s Cauldron Overlook Trail
We didn’t make it to the Devil’s Cauldron (or Short Sand Beach as we had been there the prior evening for sunset) as the trail was pretty muddy from rain. Instead we headed back and went to the north-facing side of Elk Flats Rock viewpoint.
Shawn Swain on mandolin for the Kitchen Dwellers @ 2022 Northwest String Summit
This photo caught my eye because of Shawn’s tattoos on his right arm. I believe it’s the “correct” instruments for a standard bluegrass band (guitar, mandolin, fiddle, banjo, and bass). The Kitchen Dwellers are missing a fiddle, and don’t usually fit the traditional bluegrass sound. I love it when they get heavy and/or psychedelic. When they lean country I’m not much of a fan.

Saurbæjarkirkja – June 2019
Not to be confused with “Saurbæjarkirkja í Eyjafirði” which is a different church over 500 km away. This one is in the Westfjords, near Rauðisandur, where horrific murders were committed in the early 19th Century on what is now a deserted farm (Sjöundá).
