A drive north again to the Skagit valley. You may recall that this is the place where, back in the spring, we saw endless fields of tulips. Now all that is gone and the fields are empty of such colorful things. What has replaced the tulips is fields of grass and Snow Geese. With Mount Baker in the background on this sunny day, it is a mighty inviting place. Unfortunately, I was too slow to catch this flock of hundreds in the air circling for their landing. But we got to see it as we drove towards the field and it was pretty darned amazing.
We went to La Conner for lunch. Along the way we stopped in one of the antique stores for a look about. I enjoyed the many metal signs they put on the walls.
There was an assortment of baubles catching the sunlight and I thought it might make an interesting image.
As a clear sign of the times, there was an old sled out front. Complete with a bow on it for good measure.
