Looking Back
Annie Curtis takes a ride
I love Annie Curtis! This morning she and her escort took a ride down Commercial Avenue in one of the cars built by narrow gauge train designer/builder Tommy Thompson. Perhaps one day soon the train will steam down the track once again.
Lifting lens to the sky
We have had our share of gray skies of late, to be sure, but there have also been some incredible days, as evidenced by this collection of photos by photographer Del Zane of west Anacortes. To see more of Del’s impressive work, visit www.DelZanePhotography.com.
A discovery shared
Son Mark, who lives in Bellingham, discovered Tuesday evening that he lives just five minutes from a beautiful park. Armed with a new camera, he took an evening hike, gathering a number of images like this along the way. I look forward to sharing more of his discoveries in the future.

Chuckanut beauty
Son Mark chased a sunset Wednesday night, and was also treated to discovery of this beautiful waterfall along Chuckanut Drive. Nice shot!

Trebon, author of “First Views, An Early History of Skagit County,” presented slides and commentary at Funk’s […]
