A White Christmas
A week ahead of time, the weather forecast didn’t predict a White Christmas. Instead, it would be rain and mild temperatures. That changed two days before Christmas with a cold blast from the north. On Christmas Eve day, it snowed and stuck!
With his reindeers, Santa must have plotted a course to the Marina using that snow-flake version of water. Look at how he filled my stocking!
Best of all, he brought my family together for the holidays. Thank you Santa.

Argosy Christmas Ship
The beach at Golden Gardens Park was filled with people on Saturday to watch the Argosy Christmas ship. There were bonfires in the fire pits, children running along the shoreline, and lots of hot beverages. At sunset, against a crimson sky of broken clouds, the Argosy ship was greeted by lighted boats from Shilshole Bay Marina. The choir’s singing was broadcasted on mega-speakers for twenty minutes. I think this event is a jewel of Seattle’s holiday celebrations.
Halloween
What a treat Halloween was this year!
It was a beautiful evening. 
Around 6 pm, Shilshole’s kids gathered at the Harbor Master’s office.
As the sun set, they went from dock to dock.
Their costumes were adorable and their energy was sweet. Thanks kids for all the fun!
