365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Only The Brightest And Best
Day 5: Mount Rainier's volunteers are the brightest and best...well, definitely the brightest! This scruffy lot turned out for today's litter patrol along SR706 despite showery weather, collecting a total of 16 bags of trash from a two-mile stretch of roadway, plus a large pile of sodden carpet padding and a few other bulky objects. It's not a glamorous job, but we like to think that visitors appreciate what they don't see on their way to the Mountain as well as what they do see when they get there. If you missed us this time, look for us again in April. Give a wave or honk as you drive by those folks in the bright orange ANSI-approved safety vests who are working hard to keep the road to Mount Rainier beautiful.
