The Seattle Times ran editorial in the newspaper about an interesting public/private conservation organization here in Washington. The Washington Wildlife and Recreation Coalition leverages government grants and private contributions to buy property and conservation easements and fund park and public lands improvements around the state.
Their website was soliciting photos for some of their projects, so I picked a worthy looking nearby project from their list, grabbed the camera and jumped on the ferry and spent a nice weekend morning enjoying the open countryside at Ebey's Landing. I'm sure they're nice folks at the WWRC, but they never returned my e-mail asking how I could help (probably because there was no check attached) but they did use
one of my photos on a project web-page.
I'm hoping to to visit a few more of the places they're trying to preserve, and maybe even post a few more pictures.
