Before the snow...


We made a trip out to the coast to try our hand at digging razor clams. The moment we arrived, the rain began to come sideways and our lantern blew out. No luck with the clams, so we ended up drinking wine and playing uno in our little tent--not a bad alternative. The next morning, the beach was calm and beautiful and we got to stop at the Hoh to visit with the elk and see some of Justin's recent trail work.

The calm after the storm.




Mr. Big. (We were in the car and he was lying along the road)


The Misses. (She was just a few feet further up the road)



Also, we had some late-harvest treats from our garden...

Sunchokes: they have a nutty flavor just like sunflower seeds (same family, after all). They are good grated into hash browns or quartered and enjoyed raw in salads.

Our first attempt at growing celery from seed.


Perfect little imperfections, lined up in a row.
