Shadows on the winery door...

 

All four of them seem to be in a hurry to go someplace. Do you suppose they know something we don't?

 

There's a hint of Fall in some of the trees today.

 

Electrifying!

 

The little waterfall up there feeds the little stream down here.

 

Look at me, I can fly!

 

Look who came out to say hello!

 

Things are looking up!

 

X Marks the spot...

 

So much beauty-- right beside the road!

 

Then there was that moment when the sun broke through and hit a giant spider web by a beautiful cedar tree.

 

Here's a lovely spot by the Toutle River. It's a great place for picnicking, fishing, or simply taking in the peaceful surroundings.

 

Her secret spot...

 

Reach for the sky...

 

Just an old snag... I think it's welcoming us to this part of the forest!

 

Relax! It's going to be OK.

 

The trees are so dense in places, sunlight can be quite limited. It can make some parts of the forest pretty spooky.

 

The end of the day on our little road...

 

They're on guard duty!

I don't know what it is, but it makes pretty little flowers!

 

A wild animal? A bear? No, just somebody's good old dog having the best day ever playing in the Toutle River.
