This morning began with packing the car for a week at the ocean. However, before leaving town there was the small matter of Ukestra Seattle giving a holiday concert as part of the Dusty Strings 30th Anniversary Holiday Open House. We had a great crowd and played our best. What a joy to make music with these folks. All my practice while in France this fall helped keep me “in tune” with the group. If you want to keep up with what Ukestra Seattle is doing, like us on Facebook!

After the show we stopped briefly at PCC to buy groceries for the week and headed for the coast. It rained, the wind blew, and then just at sunset we saw some blue sky and pink clouds for 5 minutes! The ocean is a constant roar outside our window. Tomorrow we hope to get close up. Here are a couple of photos of the drive down.

Western Washington in the winter!
