A pleasant surprise

When I arrived at McCord AFB the view was a lot like you saw. Lucky! I was told they had a saying there. "When you can see Mt. Rainier it is going to rain. When you can't see the Mountain its raining. AS A.E.Houseman wrote on a different subject-- "Oh is true is true."

Isn't that a westies dog you have for a picture ID? lol...if not.... sorry.
No, not a Westie. She's a 2 year old rescued Mexican street dog. We got her at about 3 months and thought she might be some kind of terrier growing to about 30# or so. Wrong, she became a 70# hairy lovable pet. See photo attached.

Great shot. Lucky! When I was stationed at McCord AFB I arrived on base and checked in. It was a day like you showed here with Mt. Rainier in the back ground. I remarked to one of other people there about how wonderful a vision that was there. He then told me that there was a saying there that went like this. " When you can see Mt Rainier its going to rain. When you can't see it its raining."
Thanks for lookin' Spike. They say that the folks in the PNW don't tan, they rust! chase

[quote=chase4]While visiting a friend in Gig Harbor, WA the clouds cleared briefly and I was able to get this snapshot of Mt. Rainier from her front deck. Rainier is about 40 miles away. chase[/quote
