Gig Harbor's annual Christmas tree lighting event is this Saturday starting at 5:00PM. This is always a fun event..

Here are some shots and video from last year....

Spawning Salmon

I took a walk this morning in Ray Nash Valley and quickly noticed Chum Salmon making the annual pilgrimage up Ray Nash creek. Here are some sights and sounds of the fish...

Gig Harbor snow...please..

Here are some pictures of Gig Harbor stores in the snow last year in November.... We all would love snow over 50 degrees and rain any day!

Semiahmoo Sights

We took a trip to Semiahmoo near the Canadian Border yesterday. The weather was amazing. We had everything from beautiful blue skies to black skies and hail. This type of weather makes for great pictures..

Rainbow and Waterfowl

Eagles in our midst

Cindi and I are just hanging out watching the Seattle Sea Chickens try to beat the lowly Detroit Lions. The Bald Eagles in our back yard are much more entertaining!

Enjoy!

The Ducks are back in town!

I look forward every fall for return of ducks here on Ray Nash Bay. Today I saw (and took pictures of) Bufflehead's, Common Mergansers (pictured above), Barrows Goldeneye's and Mallards.

Enjoy!

Bufflehead take off

Brilliant Male Bufflehead..

Lunch walk

I took the pooch out for a walk today at lunch time. It is sure nice living in Gig Harbor where you literally just have to walk out your front door to see amazing sights and sounds. Enjoy!
