Description
For all those who were born in October, I dedicate this image, taken yesterday, on my last trip on my shortcut, to all of you.
I say that this is my last trip as the rains here have caused the rivers to rise to an extent that my route through WRG (Washougal River Greenway) is now flooded out for the season.
This is nothing though, in comparaison to what is happening on the East coast.
So while we celebrate these birthdays, I ask everyone to keep those on the East Coast in your thoughts and prayers.
Thanks for all the comments and faves.
Mike
ps. depending on how my co-worker does with the shots in the back, I may be posting only photos for a long time as I may be covering for her until she recovers.
so I ask your thoughts and prayers for Carol
Thank you

Absolutely beautiful reflections in this Mike. Sad it's flooded but this is the usual for you in this area...and it always looks so pretty during and next year. The images coming through from Sandy are devastating. Some places look like a bomb hit. Definitely praying that this ends sooner than later and people are safe. Oh dear, shots in the back do not sound like fun at all. Hope she does alright.
It's like this here in NYC. My neighborhood may have gotten off easy, but some of my friends were flooded. Thanks for sharing, Mike. Excellent shot, pal!
Gorgeous view
terrific water-scape
A super shot here Mike... love all the vegetation and the reflections... our prayers will be for your friend.
The river, she rises ... We fared ok here in southern NH. W lost our power at about 4PM Monday night but it was only out for 3 or 4 hours. We could see the tree on the power lines just over the hill from our house. Cool shot Mike.
only had lots of strong wind and rain here. others are in my thoughts and prayers because we had the rough stuff last october...
I thought in all sorely afflicted by Sandy and I wish them strength to reconstruction. Amazing shot.
Lovely dedication Mickey!!
Superb capture my friend. Sad to see such devastation and to hear of loos of life. May all go well with Carol. God Bless.
Although its terrible what has happened out in the East and in so many parts of the world, your image is a perfect tribute to keep this in mind and in our prayers. A really beautiful and serene image nevertheless. Water can be so beautiful and calming, but at the same time so very dangerous.
SUPERB SWAMPY PLACE!
Beautiful Mike, and a wonderful thought & prayer!
Will keep your coworker in my prayers as well as the poor suffering souls on the east coast! A most wonderful photo and fine dedication here, Mike! Many kudos on your kind thoughtfulness!
fantastic picture and dedi!!
It's gorgeous, Mike; and if it didn't do this for the season it wouldn't be such a lovely ride for you the rest of the time, eh? Prayers for your coworker...
A realy sad new how many now have to live whitout their family ,house and lot of problem that caused.... Prayer and demangs will be for them sure ((5++))
Thank you for sharing this lovely capture with us Mike. You are right that it is important to keep those on the East Coast in our prayers as well as your friend Carol
wonderful capture with so much thought and meaning warm hugs, Linda
Beautiful image and words
Many thanks Mike! I,m from October an I really like this dedi.
praying for them all, Hope God touches them..
still looks super Mike, you can see alot of water in this shot.
Happy Birthday and this year I got you a swamp. Watch out for the quicksand...smile. Reminded me if all the flooding on the east coast sadly.
LOL Hadcancer. This is beautiful, Mike. Very peaceful unlike the news. My cousin Eric survived 9-11 and now, even though he lives a few blocks from Long Island Sound, has come through hurricane Sandy with no damge or flooding. I've got to find out how he does it. I hope it goes well for your friend Carol.
Although I live in Memphis now, and this shot reminds me of our swamps, until five years ago I lived on the EC, so I've definitely had family and friends in my thoughts.
very nice shot and our thoughts go out to those who suffer.
Such a nice tribute, Mike. The image and the reflections say it all---
Wishing Carol well and Prayers to all because of the storm. Aloha
Wonderful reflective capture Mike!! I, like You hope for the best for everybody on the East coast. My thoughts and prayers go out to everbody effected!!
