On the Water

we spent the day on a research vessel today – mostly taking readings of water properties and collecting water samples. Raising and lowering the line with one piece of equipment or another all day – but it was fun. For the most part it was gray and spitting rain, but on the way back home there were a few sun breaks. We saw a bunch of sea lions just hanging out in the water together – too cute. And I got some pics of the ballard locks as we were going through.

The Green River

The Green River winds through town and back behind our apartments. The footbridge Mr. H is standing on is a 10 minute walk from home. Along this stretch, the west side of the river is homes and the east side is a park. This stretch usually has 5 to 10 people fishing along the shores, look for the breaks in the briar patches. The day these pictures were taken, there were even people fishing from under the bridge.
