On a clear day

One of the nice things that happens in the winter is that the sky is often much clearer than in the summer and more often. The cool crisp air lets you see the stars at night light you should be able to. When the sky is clear on the mainland we often get exceptional view of Mt. Baker in Washington Strait. The other day I took this photo of that magnificent mountain and it was about as clear as it gets. Some lucky people in Victoria get up each morning and have to look at it. How awful, eh!
