Yesterday we were at the Evergreen State Fair in Monroe, WA. There was some dramatic weather swings while there, including these ominous-looking clouds.

This posting goes along with the Pagoda image from a couple of days back. There was a yoga class outside at the Seattle Center, which I thought was interesting. The tree is part of the landscape.

Kind of long distance, so apologies. Due to the location this was about as close as I could get. Plus, I was actually trespassing on Reservation Land. Since I am part Cherokee I was able to justify it in my mind :-).

About Me

Currently 74 years old, cancer survivor  living in Seattle, WA. Enjoy both photography and music.

Update: 6 Sept 2023: Cancer has returned. Probably will start directed radiation treatment at the end of October.

Update: 24 Sept 2024: After two 15 round sessions of SBRT I am now undergoing chemotherapy. After chemo, A PET scan will assess where I am. After the scan I will be minimally doing a year of immunotherapy -beginning November, 2024. Update: 8 March 2025-Finished 3rd immunotherapy ( Imfinzi- a checkpoint inhibitor) and fourth is on 11 March 2015. Another PET SCAN scheduled for 18 March 2025.

Update Sept. 2025: Scans from a couple of weeks ago look positive. However, Oncologist has changed the original plan from one year of immunotherapy to continuing “indefinitely”, as he feels, due to my history with cancer, that if stopped it would come back.

 

Selfie: 2016 at the Cliffs of Moher and from March of 2025. Nearly ten years apart.
