Eastern Washington

We went to Richland to visit relatives last weekend. The drive home on I-90 was the most stunning in the 40 years I've been making that trek. Everytime I looked up from my computer, the scene had changed. First blue sky and snow dusted mountains of the eastern dessert, the bright blue Columbia, then white out near Ellensburg, blue fog over Alder lake, sun piercing the fog and backlighting the trees of the Cascades. I couldn't resist setting up my mobile studio and making very quick sketches. They don't do reality justice, but I had a lot of fun. 

                 

       

I also snagged the Richland Icon - circa American Grafiti
