More from the port

Busy place that Port of Tacoma –

Canadian Highway

Behind the sticks is the cargo ship Canadian Highway. Quite possibly the ugliest 650 feet of cargo ship the port has ever seen.

Ugly is

Ugly or not, if you wanna drive a Volvo Mercedes, this is what they use to get it here.

And that concludes todays lesson on ugly boats in Tacoma.

More streaking

It’s dark when I get off the pedals after work. Makes for tough sledding when it comes to taking photos. So I’ve got to play with long shutter releases.

I thought this came out kinda cool –

 

Streaks

 

 

I gotta find a better road next.

Weekend

A couple of shots from the weekend –

 

 

 

Competition Hauling ass Looking for lunch Nice out

 

 
And a good time was had by all.
If by having a good time means hanging around looking for lunch in a river that’s hovering around the freezing mark.
Me? I find the bar at the Fairmont a bit more to my liking….
