Standing in the middle of a flower dotter meadow on the eastern foothill of Mt. Rainier, I felt like an idiot. I have travelled to five continents and a dozen countries in search of photo opportunities, extreme landscapes, adventure and a quest to see the world; and here lie in my very backyard of the Northwest sights that I have overlooked.
I decided to makeup for a decade of folly within a year. For the next fifty two weekends that I am in the Northwest, I will find a place – new or retuning - and be there to enjoy splendid landscape.It has now been said, just remains to be done.Stay tuned.
