Howdy from the northwest!.   I'm updating the creek bagging in the Willamette tonight and I'll finish that.  More to come, and I'll be updating the St. Helens trips here after Monday with a few pictures too.   I figured out why Russia makes it on the top ten list of web site viewers.  It's hackers!  Wow nice folks there.  I gave them the banking account number I got from a nice Nigerian man in my email so I hope they find it useful.  Anyway to you nice people who drop by from time to time, welcome.  I'll try to get some more things up here.  I turned the background to puce just to see if anyone clicks on my email and complains!

It was a clear steel-blue day. The firmaments of air and sea were hardly separable in that all pervading azure; only the pensive air was transparently pure and soft, with a woman's look, and the robust and man-like sea heaved with long strong, lingering swells, as Samson's chest in his sleep.
