A few pix for the old year

Sunset: A ship on the Columbia River

I'll start with some photos from the end of 2007, in which year (as I notice) I didn't post any. [Note: now that I've learned to back-date posts, I may get around to adding some.] It's been a busy year - more on that later. I took this pic on December 7, 2007, at 6 pm from the deck outside my office on the Columbia River in Astoria. I love the colors on the river, and the quickly-changing weather. I think many of the pix on the blog this year will be about color.

December 2, 2007: A Lull in the Storm

Astoria had a near-hurricane early in December. This photo shows none of the damage. I like the colors through the rain. It was an eerily calm day as Lee and I drove through town knowing there was more to come. Click on the photo to see the house through sheets of water.

More colors, more rain
