Photos and Images

Retrievr was my first attempt to use Flickr mashups. My sketching skills must be really poor. I wasn't able to get pictures that resembled my drawing thematically, but there were some beautiful and interesting photos that came up each time.


As a result, I decided to Spell with Flickr:

I discovered this beautiful picture of Lake Keechelus on Snoqualmie Pass on Flikr (thanks Holiday By Rail). What's not to love - this is practically in my backyard.

I love to jog to Lake Keechelus when the weather permits and my dog Willie loves to come too because when we get there, he get's to go swimming.

Fishing is great too!

This is the first post in my new blog. That being said, I thought it would be appropriate for me to introduce myself. My name is Jennifer Wiseman and I live with my husband Jon on Snoqualmie Pass. Some people think we're crazy, but it really is beautiful every season of the year and continues to be an adventure.

After graduating from the University of Washington (go HUSKIES!) with my degree in editorial journalism, I decided not to pursue a career in print media. Instead, I went to work at the King County Library System (I'm not a librarian). I work at the in the Community Relations Department and also assist the Director and the Library Board. I love working in the public sector and feel like I do something good everyday. So much in fact that I am now working on my Master's degree in Public Administration from the Evan's School of Public Affairs. Graduate school is intense, but I'm sure it will be worth it.
