First

This is the first official sunset taken of the summer. Yay. This picture was taken from downtown. tonight around 7:30. This is the old, gritty, industrial heart of Bellingham that brought livelihoods to ten of thousands over the decade: the Georgia-Pacific plant. Nestled around the plant were boat yards and myriad other businesses that serve those that earn their living from the sea.

The plans, however far out - some say too far out to even matter, are to build condos, some parks and a marina for forty-plus foot yachts. Great. Another vacation playground like Lake Tahoe that remains barren and deserted for seven months of the year. But this will certainly evolve into a huge debacle that I am sure will cause opinions to be voiced.

But I least I took some cool pics today that I am sure you will see for days to come. Back to work.
