I'm ready for my closeup...

Here are 2 extreme closeups of things in my house - one is not going to be around for much longer. My digital camera is getting on in years, hence the poor focus. Maybe I should get it bifocals. Here's last Saturday's sky: We were in Sidney (on Vancouver Island). You can just make out a snow covered mountain top on the horizon (about 1 cm to the right of the end of the pier). Not sure what mountain it is; it's in Washington State. This Saturday was cooler than it has been for a while. Which was a nice break for us, but my sister (who's visiting from Winnipeg) wasn't too thrilled with it. At least it didn't rain yesterday, and the clouds actually broke up by late afternoon, and it was quite nice until it cooled off in the evening.
