what you might see on a quick run to the store around here. The other day I happen to look in my rear view mirror and there was a herd of elk in a field. So I buzzed into a driveway and when I looked up here was Mt. Rainier just glistening off to my left.
A closer shot in all it's majestic beauty.
And straight ahead in front of me was Mt. St. Helens doing the same thing.
Now that I got those pictures I head back down to see the elk for a minute.
Ya might see some feathered friends too.
Or maybe a buffalo . . .
Hard to say what a trip to the store might bring. But the funniest and strangest thing I ever saw living down the road from us is the camel. You can see the silly old thing making faces at me if you click

Beautiful photos!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice weekend.
Great shots! I love the mountains when they are covered in snow- just beautiful. We moved from Portland to Redmond recently and we see the Sisters mountains in all their glory out our front window! I love it.
ReplyDeleteHappy almost spring to you!
You have the best scenery and on an everyday kind of basis! When I go to the grocery store, I don't see mountains or elk or camels, oh my....(I do see buffalo, though, our neighbor raises them) Your views are astounding!
ReplyDeleteLoved the pictures of Rainier and St. Helen's--our niece just found out her first assignment after basic is at Fort Lewis. Been telling her of the beauty--Love Paradise.
ReplyDeleteYou do live in an amazing place. Those mountains are beautiful.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos, Linda of Mt. Rainier and Mt St Helens, and I love your header! Pretty funny about the camel. Don't we live in an absolutely beautiful part of the country?
ReplyDeleteGreat shots RG, Elk, mountains, how beautiful!

Beautiful pictures of both mountains! I see Rainier on clear days on my way to the grocery store, but from a very different angle. It's so interesting to see it from your perspective. I never see elk, though. Or buffalo. Or a camel.
ReplyDeleteDear RG, Of course, I get very similar views when I pop to the shops in Maida Vale!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat beautiful mountain scenery you live with and such splendid wildlife. Lucky you!
The mountains look so beautiful dress in white. What a lovely backdrop you have there. So many elk running around too. I hope they do not find your garden. LOL! That would be a disaster. Have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteThose mountains really are majestic aren't they? Great photos. The elk are pretty amazing too. I hope you remembered your list. If it were me after a few photo ops like this I'd get to the store and go, duh, now what was I supposed to get?
ReplyDeletethat is an amazing trip to the store. all I get to see is buildings
ReplyDeleteDear RG, Wow! You live in a very special place. My little Pocono mountains are dwarfed in comparison. P x
ReplyDeleteJust living in the shadow of those magnificent mountains would be such a joy then to throw in the elk?! I might just have to pack up and move to Washington one of these days. It's gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWhat amazing scenery, really stunning and Elk too! I hate shopping but it might be worth it if I saw sights like that on the way :)
