What th-?

Just sharing small, random, and granular bits and pieces of the Great Pacific Northwest before the Big One, the Cascadia Subduction unzip, wipes out everything we once knew. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but relatively speaking, someday soon.

All of these photos were taken with an old flip cellphone. The author has no pretense or claim of being a professional artist or photographer. This is more of an aimless and undisciplined documentary than it is an organized and edited or polished presentation.
