Vacation pictures, playing catch-up
Since my last set of vacation pictures (from the Pacific northwest), we got a new computer, with a new version of iPhoto, which organized our pictures in a brand new way that we had to learn, and then we went on another trip. I've got two more day's worth of pictures for you! First, Aberdeen Washington:
Dauca carota, with pink flowers--never seen that before.
A linear park in Aberdeen runs along a river, and behind several businesses. This row of Populus trees is behind a supermarket. I was amazed, despite the artificiality of the planting, suggesting an urban environment, the thick growth of lichen, which tends to grow only sparsely in cities.
A monument to the loggers, whose industry (and sacrifice, as the memorial emphasizes) created the city.
Back at the hotel, a white-crowned sparrow (I think) perched in a western redcedar.
