Last week I began showing the parts of my world that are closest to home. Those of you who have visited my blog know how much I love the harbor where I get so many great sunset captures. I thought I'd share a little more of that lovely place today. There are actually two locations -- all within five minutes of our house. One is a small park above the harbor and the other is down on the beach. We had some beautiful sun yesterday so I went to both places, camera in hand. The Kayakers were having a great time! Do click on the photos to embiggen and see more details!
There were lots of sailboats on the water as well.
Lovely blue skies!
The Cascade Mountains in the distance!
Changing colors!
Sunset from above the harbor.
The beach in summer time to look forward to!
An ever changing view -- how could you ever tire of the beauty!

Mountains coming down to the ocean, no, I would never tire of it. The overcast days and mist, that is what I would tire of.
It was so nice to wake today to high clouds and no fog. The promise that winter is drifting away. I'm glad that you, too, are getting a taste of sun.
There is something so soothing about being near the water, lucky you!
beautiful - no wonder you never tire of these views :)
Sylvia, beautiful photos!! and you make me long for the coast. ;)
Those are wonderful shots my friend. It's so wonderful to have actually seen that in person. Well done :)
the views spectacular...the pacific northwest at its best!
i will gladly trade you my snow and cold for 40 degree weather :)

You live in a lovely place with stunning views all around. No, I'd never tire of them either.
What a beautiful world you live in Sylvia. Don't you have snow at this time of the year? (winter in the Northern Hemisphere) Have a wonderful week.

This is stunning series of photos. What a wonderful peace and serenity!
Sylvia: I must agree that the Pacific NW is a beautiful spot when its not raining. Great photos of a neat area of the world.
You have all this so close to home? Amazing!
Makes me want to take down the pygmy kayak I have been making and finally put it in the puget sound for testing to enjoy those great views of the snow capped mountains.
Very beautiful place, The shot of mountains at a distance is amazing.
What a beautiful country you live in. Great pictures
Wonderful shots from your part of the world Sylvia. I always love to see sailboats although I don't sail like I used to. I also find water and mountains such a gorgeous combination.
Lovely photos as always...just a beautiful area, Sylvia.
I never tire of coming here to see our views! Thank you for sharing so many of them.
Only five minutes away from your house? Lucky you. What a great bunch of photos.
Oh, Sylvia, what a lovely place to be! You've captured it perfectly! Wish I was one of those kayakers!
It's a beautiful area Sylvia, you're lucky to have it so closeby. It also looks like you have very nice weather, unlike the rest of us!
Have a great week.

The mountain are very special shots. We have so many lakes and forests in My Muskoka , it is good to see a different perspective. Thanks for sharing them.
oohh! what a perfect day and a perfect view of the peaks! Great photos, Sylvia! Looks like everyone is happy there's a day with no rain :)
These pictures are excellent and they really highlight the beauty of the area.
It was so nice to see a picture of you and Thom together.
Nice to see more of your World, where you enjoy hanging out. That first shot of the Cascades is wonderful. So love mountain views.
Have a great week, Sylvia!
If I didn't live in my world in Florida with its lovely beaches, I would definitely want to live in your world with its gorgeous mountains.
I love seeing the beauty that surrounds you, Sylvia. Its the next best thing to being there.
Such beautiful captures. Definitely a place to spend hours.
Such incredible views, Sylvia. What a landscape. You live in a beautiful place.
I'm so upset, was supposed to be first here but i just wasn't able to get through.. your write up always calms me.. the serenity, peace and the feeling that all is well, that's what you always portray.. I'm hooked on your blog.
thank you.

YOUR WORLD IS EDENIC!
Lucky you to live so close to the harbor. Love the snow capped mountains against the ocean. Great sunset captures too!
Beautiful day in Washington! I think Spring has arrived there(at least for now!). Your photos as always are exquisite.
I have to ask: How long has that Panda been over there at the confessional? He made me laugh so hard!
You live in a very beautiful place ! Where is it exactly ?
Oh, what a beautiful world!
Wow, beautiful photos - what an incredibly spectacular landscape. Lucky you to be living there.
Great photos Sylvia!!! Thanks for sharing!
kayaking. We have 20 cm of ice. Will take a while before I can take it out. :(
Hi, Sylvia!
I love your place Sylvia. It is so beautiful. I won't get tired watching those beautiful sunset/sunrise and strolling the beach everyday.
Thanks for the visit. Have a nice day always.
Thanks for sharing these wonderful views of the harbor with us. And, no, I could never tire of this beauty.
It's a beautiful place you live in, Sylvia, and the climate seems near perfect!
Janice.
What a lovely spot you have so close by. I have always lived near the ocean and living in NC is the furthest I have been - 5 hours. Do miss the water!
Thanks for sharing the beauty of your world with us through these marvelous photographs.
Hugs and blessings,
