Anne Sandler of Slow Shutter Speed, invites us to share what relaxes us; what gets us away from the stresses of daily life. Being out in nature is always my number one stress reliever. Whether playing outside in my Vancouver, Washington gardens (most people call it yard work), or taking my beagles on a walk (even in the rain), being out in the natural world helps me restore balance.
After a week of rain on the Long Beach Peninsula WA, including 3 days under an atmospheric river, today the sun blessed our little corner of the world. To celebrate, I took Max and Daisy (and my camera!) on a field trip to enjoy a leisurely walk and sniff along the Martha Jordan Birding Trail, part of Leadbetter Point State Park, north of Ocean Park, WA.

Beautiful images Lindy–and relaxing too. What cute pups.
Thank you, Anne. They are rescues too. Brother and sister, they were 6 when I found them 🐾
Rescues make the best pets.
Lindy, thanks for taking us on this relaxing walk through nature with you and your dogs.
It was my pleasure🐾🐾
Especially nice – I can almost smell the damp earth!
Thx — Barbara Hollenbeck 🌱
Nature – our saviour who we must save. Beautiful photos – and Max and Daisy are the gems!
How did I miss this from you?!
Thank you, Leya.
I’ve never seen a salmonberry flower before, it’s beautiful.
Thank you, Sofia. They hide among the ferns and shrubs!
