Went on a camping trip this weekend down to what's left of Alder Lake near Eatonville, WA.

Thought I overshot to California for a sec with this traffic light in Spanaway.

How long has this temporary light been here at the junction of SR-7 and SR-507?

Due to drought conditions in the west coast, this isn't an uncommon sight in the Pacific Northwest. When I went to the Gorge amplitheater earlier in the year, Keecheelus Lake was in a similar state. You can see the end of the boat ramp pavement.

Here's an old road uncovered from before the Alder Dam was built flooding the valley.

And a sunset.
The plan was to go boating and swimming, but it was still a lot of fun. Turns out, taking pictures with your phone while driving scares your passengers.
