Whatcom Falls, 2011

"Whatcom Falls" Spring 2011
Washington

We went to Bellingham for Anna-Marie's piano performances at Western Washington University.  I recall she did great.  I also remember that I (Sonja) had a horrendous coughing attack.  But I did get to see her perform.  So proud of her.  Mom, Johnny and Laura came.  One day we went to the Tulip Festival, and another day at Whatcom Falls.  This was the beginning of my waterfall adventures.  In 2011 I saw eleven waterfalls, in 2012 I have seen twelve new ones. Next year I'm going for 13 more new ones.  Ah--- what fun it is.

Whatcom Falls is lush and green with moss everywhere.  The trees were not yet in full leaf.  But it was beautiful.  I have heard that in the summer people are frolicking in the falls.  The bridge was old and magnificent, a photographers dream.  Green ferns clinging to the sides of the bridge, defying gravity.  Mom and of course all of us had a wonderful time.  We also continued up the path, to a peaceful pond, with a couple of ducks, that Mom insisted I take pictures of.  It was a quick weekend trip, wish it could have been longer.
