Winding down 2017, building to 2018. May all those who suffer be healed and Peace to All who are loving and honest.

Holiday cookies, ornaments, colors and more.

Tundra swans are here. Snoqualmie Falls

Amanita muscaria... The happy mushroom.

Found near a marina I visit regularly.

Fun to look at.
Interesting in Siberian Christmas tradition of Santa, and reindeer etc.
but not to be taken lightly. Meaning many of these will kill you.

Death by a thousand cuts.

Our number 1 tourist attraction

A small Bavarian village set in the mountains.
The beer fest may be going on now.
Shopped and restaurants.
They used to have a Scandinavian store that I loved ( being Scandinavian myself)..
And there was a cool antique jewelry store years ago.
When these closed I lost interest because you can only go into so many souvenir shopped, right?

Kiku

Blooms begin.
This year one to a plant.

My Window at Lake Crescent Lodge.

Not currently, but sun was bright so I covered the window and love the room like this. Upstairs in the lodge over looking the lake ( before they had such bad management as they do now)..

The great thing about an aboriginal mask...

Is doing like the aboriginals, finding seeds and flowers to decorate my self (portrait) with whenever I want.

I'm deciding on a name.
The mask is clay...
