The weather has not changed much since ten days ago. The winds have been merciless, knocking over chairs and tables. There has barely been a break in the rain. It is raining still right now.
Yesterday I woke up pretty late. I pulled aside the drapes on my window, and huge rays of sun blasted through as bright as ever. I could see the entire way to the mountains. Normally, it would be too misty to see past the trees. I ran out to the kitchen, and saw the elk happily grazing near the river bend. After breakfast, I hurriedly snatched my camera, running outside fearing that the clouds could roll in any moment. A faint aroma of peppermint hit my nose when I opened the door. I saw the morning dew was clasping to the greenery and all along the fence. The mountain on the deck-side of our house is covered in patches of snow. When I was making my way indoors again, a very large bald eagle soared right above me, and I was able to get a few shots, though they’re not very good. Here are some of the (yay! sunny) pictures I took yesterday.
