Visiting Scotland wouldn’t be complete without a visit to a distillery. Blair Athol is very old and, although I don’t imbibe, the tour was fascinating and entertaining.

Low tide on the Duwamish River a couple of weeks ago. This spot is directly under the landing path for Sea Tac Airport. With the exception of the air traffic, this is a fairly serene location I have been coming to for years.
