Above the Storm


As it was storming here along the edge of the Puget Sound, high above in Glacier Peak Wilderness, Brad was looking down on the wild weather hitting the Puget Sound Region.  I thought he'd be drenching wet, miserable without sun or views. I was also a bit concerned for his safety with so much lightning and him high above tree line.  Gratefully, how wrong I was as the storm was low and Brad was high above it.  He watched the lightning from his mountain perch.  Each night his little blue tarp protected him from rain but each day the sun came out to warm and dry him. 

Home Sweet Home

Looking down on the storm

Beautiful lakes tucked into the snow covered mountains

Enough clouds for beauty and interest, but not so many as to block the views

Beautiful meadows, rugged mountains, and drifting clouds 

And, after thinking nothing could be more beautiful than the Olympic Mountains, Glacier Peak Wilderness has leaped ahead on Brad's favorite list.  What's abundantly clear is the stunning beauty of the Pacific Northwest, from sea shore to mountain top.
