Meglet Rambles On

My sister was in town for my birthday last week, and we spent some time wandering around downtown Seattle, and on Friday we decided to take the 1 hour Harbor Cruise around Elliot Bay. The weather was perfect, the tour guide was amusing, and of course I took my camera along for the ride. Click [...]

Yesterday was one of the most beautiful Saturdays yet this spring, so of course I had to work. Fortunately, I was done by mid-afternoon, so I headed down to Pike Place Market with a friend, since it’s an easy walk from my new apartment. The market was packed, but I still managed a few pictures. [...]

At the end of my vacation, I had a chance to get into the historic Thorp Grist Mill with my camera and take some pictures. Most of the equipment from the 1800s is still in the mill, obviously not working anymore, but still in pretty good shape. I have to admit the place is a [...]

Lemon Pepper Chicken, rice with lemon butter sauce, and salad with feta and green olives.

While walking through downtown Missoula this morning, I stopped at Brennan’s Wave, which is an artificially created wave on the Clark Fork River. It’s very popular with kayakers and body surfers, and luckily for me and my camera, there was a kayaker playing in the wave.

Now I’m really, really going to get back on the interstate.

2 hours into my day, I’m only 45 miles out of Portland because I chose the scenic route

Today is the day for driving from Portland, OR to Missoula, MT, with a stop at Multnomah Falls and Maryhill Park. I left Portland exactly on time this morning, but I’m already behind schedule thanks to the distraction of a “scenic viewpoint” sign that has taken me off the interstate and onto the slow, twisty [...]
