Ecola State Park. Cannon Beach, Oregon.

Looks a lot like what I was hiking through yesterday. I that the ferns and moss survive the winters around here.

Connects Blackcomb Mountain to Whistler Mountain. Not for the faint-hearted, as at one point it is 1427 feet above the valley floor.

Wow, excellent! There's so much snow here at the moment that i can't imagine it ever being as green as that!

It is, I love it. The seasons where we live are clearly delineated, and each one has its own particular charms.

We are excellent. Nutty March weather is sending us scurrying to light the woodstove still in the evenings. We just put it in last year and we are really loving it.

PBS had a special on the Seattle Worlds Fair I saw recently. They went into some depth of the background and how it came to be. Wonderful footage of its construction and opening.
