Kennewick Real Estate Blog

There are quite a few things in this world that I don’t like/don’t understand -

• why my husband bites his nails
• why my son nibbles on paper
• why Jo married Professor Bhaer instead of Laurie, like she should have
• why people include raspberry in chocolate-based desserts

but the big one, and the subject of this post, is the Kennewick Lighthouse -

They say this is the first lighthouse built in the U.S. since 1962. That’s right, the first in almost half a century. Gee, could it be because there is no reason to build one?

(photo taken earlier this month)

They say the iPhone has a pretty lame camera and it doesn’t take good pictures but, I dunno, this one seems to have come out pretty well. It’s the Columbia River at dusk, taken from the lookout stations near Cedars Restaurant on Clover Island.

One of these days, I’m gonna grab my better camera and tripod and go find a good spot to shoot photos of the cable bridge at night, when it’s all lit up. Yes, everyone has already seen pictures like that of the cable bridge, but I still want to do it.

Until then, I had to settle for this daylight photo (from my iPhone) that we took last weekend after dinner at Ice Harbor Brewing Company.

Another great weekend of hydroplane racing is in the books, with Steve David and the Oh, Boy, Oberto winning the title. But the thing that everybody will be talking about is J. Michael Kelly’s flip this afternoon during the Columbia Cup heats. Have a look at this:

That’s a one-and-a-half flip in mid-air, and Kelly was okay. Amazing.

Found this nice, little flower display a few days ago outside the Windermere Real Estate office on Kellogg Street while going in to say hello to Cari. Looked nice, smelled even better.
