Three faces of Julianna



Aw, Geez, Grammie, not the camera again!



Ok, I'll smile...Cheese!  Aren't I cute?

Ok, I'm done now.

Bangkok skyline at night

Bangkok and the Chao Phraya

Just got back from two amazing weeks in Thailand....lots of photos to post!  I'm starting with this one taken from the balcony of our hotel room on the 30th floor of the Chatrium hotel.  The view was spectacular, but it was too hot, even at midnight when this photo was taken, to stay out on the balcony too long.

Spring rain

Little girl and dog

At Pike's Place Market in Seattle.  I think that little girl wanted to untie the dog and take him home.

Yaquina Head Lighthouse staircase



I love lighthouses.   I envision a handsome lighthouse keeper and his buxom bride standing in the lighttower, embracing ala Jack and Rose style, wind blowing their hair and sea mist moistening their brows.  In reality I know it must have been a lonely life of hard work in unforgiving elements. Still, I can't help but feel romantic whenever I see one of these sentinels of the past. 
This photo is of the staircase leading up to the lighttower at Yaquina Head lighthouse in Oregon. Can't you just see that handsome lightkeeper and his beautiful wife ascending the stairs, hand in hand, blanket and bottle of wine in tow.....ahhh.



Bird on the beach

We noticed lots of dead birds on the beach after the big storm.  Sad.

Helping hand

Sometimes we all need a little help.
