Picture of the Day
Thursday
November 6, 2025
 

it's been raining for days. and nights. a soft drizzle lulls you to sleep,
later a violent downpour jerks you awake. but it all sounds like relief--
 enough to finally quench the bear gulch fire after 4 months and 20K acres.

weather like this softens the edges, and when it comes to relaxing forms of
travel, the bremerton ferry is right up there with amtrak, a chance to watch
the world go by, enchanting even when there's not much variety, whether sere
great plains or slate grey sea, they're exercises in relativity--you sit motionless
as the world spins under you, arriving just in time to once again leave.
