Mt Rainier, till we meet again I'll remember you in a purple hue.

I spent the weekend up at Mt Rainier. We camped at Ohanapecosh. Went up to Paradise on Saturday. Stopped by Narrada Falls and Box Canyon. Sunday we went up to Sunrise. The higher elevations were still covered in snow and I got a sunburn that I'm blaming on reflected rays. I didn't take a camera, but got some shots on my dad's, I just need to get them from him. For now here's some pics of Sunrise I got with my phone. The light was strange up there and gave everything this purple tint. I kinda dig it.

A mid June's outting to the shadow of a stratovolcano

I went camping this weekend with my dad at Ohanapecosh on Mt Rainier. We found a great little site...
















That was right above the river by this awesome looking mudslide...





















Saturday morning we woke up and hiked through the woods...
















We went up to Silver Falls...



Some volunteer rangers we saw said it was the largest they'd ever seen the falls...





















It was pretty amazing. Thanks again Dad!

The subject was always just out of frame

I can't wait to get out of here. I'm sitting at work bored out of my mind and this weekend I finally get to get away. I'm going to Ohanapecosh (SE Mt Rainier) with my dad. Well we're hoping to find a site there. If not we're going to hit up the family compound and pitch tents there. Either way it's going to be nice to get out of Seattle even if its just for the weekend...

I've been fending off boredom by working on the festival. Things are starting to come together nicely. Looks like I still need a few more acts, but I'm also adding a surprise performance. I might release more details as the date nears, but I probably won't. You'll just have to show up to find out...

I mowed the lawn last night. I must say, "Damn, it looks gooood!" It was exhausting though. By the time I was done I was dripping in sweat, my leg throbbed and my skin burned. But my foot didn't hurt. There's a plus...

I'm still obsessed with Deerhunter. It never stops...
