A Fresh Page, Tacoma [Explore Front Page]

Mornings along the waterfront provide me with sense of a fresh page for the day, full of opportunity. The Irish side of me sees opportunity for adventure and success, while the German side of me sees opportunity for pitfalls to be avoided!
Taken along Tacoma's waterfront on Commencement Bay, from one of the city's many parks (Jack Hyde), looking at the Sealift Military ships and the Port of Tacoma beyond.

    Very pretty sunrise to offset your amusing description! Alas, my German heritage has been beaten down by my generally optimistic Welch silliness.

    What a nice shot - I used to live in Proctor and drove by these guys every day - never took the time to stop and shoot them =(.
