I’m still reeling from Jim Reitz’s Rattlesnake Lake cover photo last week, which is what I love about the Valley – there’s so much to see here.

Speaking of unique sights, this photo of Mount Si and a flock of sheep are seemingly unrelated, but I took them on the same day.

We received a tip Thursday, April 2, about five sheep that were wandering around the caller’s Wilderness Rim neighborhood. En route, I noticed a fresh wave of snow had blanketed Mount Si overnight, so I couldn’t stop myself from pulling over and taking a photo. I love that a normal day on the job can hold anything from formatting the paper, to photographing lost sheep. I’m excited to document the next spectacle.
