"The Mountain" of the Pacific Northwest Mount Rainier -- 14,409' (4,392 m) Towering above Port of Seattle and into the clouds. |
A lady snaps the view from Kerry Park ... a favorite spot to overlook the city. And a runner up for our Good Fence entry. |
Afternoon sun creates thousands of sparkles on the water of Puget Sound |
Our entry for this week's Good Fences. It looks pretty good to us, how about you? |
We like this tree! |
Another tree in a little park in the Magnolia neighborhood. The bench gives you a some perspective on the size of the tree. Great spot to sit and ponder just about anything. |
The new leaves and angle of the sunlight almost make this tree shine. |
We love these in their fall colors ... but isn't the green beautiful too? |
These flowers seemed to be glowing in the bright afternoon sun. |
A rose is a rose ... but this one is wild! |
Thank you for stopping by John's Island. Can you believe April has gone by so fast ... how was your April?

ReplyDeleteGood Morning, John.. I love the view of Mt Rainier.. Great fence scenes and the flowers are lovely.. Have a happy day!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! Yesterday I left the house without my raincoat, a mistake, since it was sunny AND rainy all day long. Love your Rainier pictures especially, and the flowers and trees. :-)
ReplyDeletejust beautiful views. i love trees, too, and pick out 'favorites' on my drives. :) really like that asian-inspired garden gate and fence! nice!!
ReplyDeleteThat great mountain on your first picture, is that a volcano? No idea. I love mountains because we have no one in our small country here. I have never seen a mountain with my own eyes. They seems so impossant!
ReplyDeleteI also love the 1000 of sparkles on the water. Beautiful photo! And green leaves? No only blossom here. Thanks for the nice photos.
What a beautiful view of the city and water. Springtime is so uplifting and refreshing. The photos are beautiful. Yes, hard to believe that April is at an end. Now Wisconsin will green up fast.

ReplyDeleteWell John,I love every one of these pictures. I'm having a hard time choosing between the mountain or the rose as my favourite. I guess I don't have to pick a favourite,I can love them all. Have a great weekend,coming up soon.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos and yes I like your pick for today's fence. I'm a tree fan so i do like the photo of the solitary tree.
