Golden Surprises In the Methow River

Do you ever look into the water and imagine what you might see in there. I love to look deeply and let my imagination run wild. In this image I see a golden turtle noticing that it is being watched. Surprise and dismay cloak this creatures face as it realizes the transparency of its situation. What will I do now that I am aware of this beautiful fantasy. Enjoy it of course. Leave it in peace and wonder where it will travel to next 🙂

What do you see when you look at this photograph that was turned into abstract painting?

Patterson Lake Cabins and Mt Gardner

On the East slope of the Cascade Mountain Range is Patterson Lake. In the distance is Mt Gardner showing a light brush of snow coverings its face. This lake is a special reservoir that captures water and slowly lets it feed down into the valley below. In the summer we swim and enjoy many water sports here and in the winter we ski by on way to the Lodge for wine and hot drinks. In the Fall we are treated to the wonderful view of leaves chaning colors and the valley preparing for cold and other adverntures. The Methow Valley is a special place and we are proud to call it our home.
