Cleared for takeoff
With a week to go until Christmas perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Santa is about to take off (see photo). One thing is for sure, this Santa won’t need any help from Prancer, Dancer, and the rest of the reindeer this year. I spotted Santa’s plane on a grassy lighted landing strip along the North Shore Road just west of Belfair State Park during today’s bike ride.
Wheels up, Santa. And stick to your flight plan no matter what the FAA says.

When I posted the Valentine’s Day photo last month I wondered if the next set of decorations would be for St. Patrick’s Day. But instead of seeing shamrocks and leprechauns on a cold, wet bike ride yesterday, I noticed all things Easter (see photo) in the area that I call “holiday woods.” The only thing the Happy Easter message from Hood Canal’s North Shore needs is some warmer weather to go with it.

Taxi!
There’s another sculpture after the jump.
