A new journey begins... Dear friends,  it is with great joy that I share with you some news...a dream come true. We are moving to Seattle! Many of you know that I have been wanting to leave the hot, dry, desert of Las Vegas,  (the only home I've ever known) and move to this Emerald City that I have fallen in love with over the last few years. I would like to take this opportunity today to share with you some of my photography that represents this beautiful place. "Good Night Seattle, we love you!"  Thank you for sharing this with me today. :-) Becca 

Just another "sunny" November day in Seattle. :-) No seriously, it really was a lovely, sunny day!  I  love to visit here this time of year to get my "autumn color fix."  So, what do people do in Seattle when the sun is shining?  Well, a lot of people had the same idea as me...you go for a walk in the park. This beautiful park is in Bellevue, Washington   which is about 9 miles East of Seattle.  I started walking, surround by hues of gold, green, orange and red. Park benches were everywhere.   The sun felt warm on my face. Many of the benches had plaques.   I photographed this one because it was the year I was born.  The sound of running water all around the walking path.  It looked like the ducks were enjoying the sunny day as well.  Leaves everywhere!  I wanted to jump and kick my feet in these little piles, but decided the person that was trying to rake the leaves into these neat, little piles woul...

Maybe she was on her way to start the long, holiday weekend with family and friends! (This desert gal living in the city of Las Vegas doesn't get to see chickens running around all the time, so I hope you'll humor me with my chicken photos!) For those of you celebrating, have a happy Labor Day, and a happy weekend to all! Be back soon, Becca

Spending time with family... An 80th Birthday... Morning walks... Late night talks... Hearing the rain in the distant trees minutes before it arrives... Picking flowers for Grandpa... Remembering how to play "Go Fish"... Memories to last a lifetime... Still 2000 miles from home.  Thank you for your comments,  I have enjoyed reading them while I'm away. I'm still trying to get around to visiting all of you! Wishing you a happy week.  Becca  

Pike Place Market Seattle, Wa This is such a fun place to visit in Seattle. I love the hustle and bustle of the market on a beautiful day.  So many colorful flowers year around! We don't have this kind of farmers market where I live. I still say that if I lived in Seattle I would be at the market every weekend buying flowers and fresh seafood. It's also a coffee drinkers paradise. Even saw some veggies I've never heard of... ...loved the lights in the wine bottles... The market after hours... ...birds looking for left overs...  ...until the next day at the market. Do you have a farmers market where you live? I'd like to hear! Hope you are having a nice weekend. I'm off to do some cleaning and laundry with a little bit of "creating" in between! Becca
