Rain, Rain.....please go away

Wow, after 24 years here in the Pacific NW, I still can't get "used" to the rain....

What is a man to do? Take pictures of course. Here are some shots from around Gig Harbor...

Breeding time for the waterfowl....never boring around here.....the geese seem to be busy all night.

This beautiful Northern Flicker was in our backyard recently. Flickers are one of my favorite woodpeckers...
