Sky Watch

February 12th 6:12 PM |
All of these sky watch photos are taken from Seattle looking out to the west over Puget Sound. The mountains in the far distance are the Olympic Mountains. In some photos only the land just on the other side of the Sound is visible ... that is Bainbridge Island.

How would you like living on this vessel for months at a time? |
Thanks for stopping by John's Island.
I would enjoy watching ships with you. Ships tell us so much. Then I could also watch sunsets with you. Here in the city , I don't really see a sunset.
