Sunshine on my Shoulders Makes me Happy!

A beautiful day on Oakland Bay

This is a picture I snapped today as I was driving to Shelton, Washington. This shimmering body of water is Oakland Bay. I used to be mesmerized by it when I was a kid. Parts of it are completely exposed when the tide goes out-I would not recommend trying to walk across- no matter how tempting-there is a reason Mom said no...trust me!

The majority of the time it appears like this- Beautiful, sparkling, and mystical when it is foggy. It is also a great place to dig oysters and enjoy watching otters play, and eagles soar!I thought you might appreciate this picture, especially if you are a local- and we get snow on Saturday.

Dinah, Not bragging here, but this is the nasty weather we had on Tuesday.

                     

This view  is of a backyard I inspected on Tuesday on the west side of El Paso.

Great pictures--I love the name of the town in Washington too.  Maybe they named it after me.

Gee, that's a gorgeous picture! We have nice scenery here, but it doesn't really compete with that! How lucky you are to live there.
