Whew. Took some time for a nice drive in the country. Went to Fir Island that had been suggested to me for videoing the Snow Geese. The angle is all wrong for the light that I want - Fir faces to the West and I want the setting sun at my back so I have to be looking East. Still, it is a gorgeous spot on a huge marine estuary with lots of other birds in abundance - raptors, ducks, etc... It was raining pretty hard when I was there so no photos.
Ran a couple of totes of stuff up to Bellingham for the tool sale next month. Decided to get a bite to eat on the road and was driving home when I ran into a bad traffic accident a couple miles before my exit. Took about 45 minutes to get through. Looks like there might have been a fatality as there was a form under a white blanket lying on the roadway. Nothing on the news services but they are probably waiting to notify next of kin.
Went out and had a couple pints at my local to decompress. Back for a quick surf and then may be heading to Seattle tomorrow - or Maple Falls.
