Crys

Early morning skies in the background. Webbed footed friends perched on a post and another in the distance.

Early morning marina photo.

I currently have about ten different books I’ve started reading. I put one down and then start another. 24 hours blocked time to read could really get through them!! What a great idea!

Blue sky with trees all around and a small opening where you can just see the Puget sound.

A photo from my walk today.

Lush scenery with a waterfall

Beautiful day!!

This inquiry makes me think, when will WOMEN have the RIGHT to NOT bring children into this world??? Forcing women to birth children and then expecting them to raise them in a world that undervalues women to start with…

Spiral staircase with large art pieces on the walls around.

View from inside the room looking out onto a pool and a larger body of water in the distance.

Last night we stayed in a beautiful beachfront accommodation. Tonight we’re in Knysna! The hotel is a converted wood burning power station with much of the equipment restored within its design. Pretty cool!

Bontebok in the wild!

This fellow let me snap a pic today!

Giant letters that spell out Cape Town at the V&A waterfront.

Snapped this photo before we hit the road to other interesting places!

Penguins hanging out on the beach!

I met these guys today! They had so many friends with them. I wanted to cuddle them!! Don’t worry, I didn’t.

Rocky terrain and blue skies on Table Mountain!

Great morning for a hike on table mountain!

Reposted purple background with the words “I want drug policies that help keep people safe. That’s why I support international overdose awareness day.”

I will be honoring those lost and those that struggle with drug use locally.

My wife and I smiling for the photo with the lake and trees in the background.

Just got back from camp! My wife and I volunteer at a local queer youth camp. I love seeing the youth come out of their shells throughout the week and really feel free to be themselves. I also love ditching all technology for the week! Now it’s back to work. Happy caturday! 😸🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

We’re trying. She comes in for treats with the door open. If we close it with her inside, she freaks out. She’s such a cuddle though. I’m so happy for your little ear tipped friend!

A very proper tortie cat staring into your soul.

Purrfection!

Sophie B Hawkins and me smiling for a photo after her show at the Triple Door.

Don’t mind me, just had to get a photo after the show. Best show I’ve been to since Joni Mitchell a couple years back! And I’ve been to some great shows. I just love the Triple Door, and Sophie B Hawkins too.

Orange creamsicle cat in human lap looking regal!

#catsnotkids says this childless cat lady! 😹

Babushka the tortie cat curled up on the bed with her mouth open and fangs out being sassy.

She’s a cute caramel marshmallow chocolate peanut butter pudding cup!

That’s wild! My tortie cat, Babushka, talks ALL the time. She has so much to say. 😸

A big orange fluffy cat laying on the back of a couch on a purple blanket with a gold frog (sitting in lotus position) statue in the background.

This guy is majestic!

My wife and I recreating a photo from years ago again for seattle pride parade dykes on bikes. Photo with space needle in the background.

Pride has a different feel this year. I’ve been riding in parades since SF in the nineties. The energy was different, almost desperate maybe. I guess I’m still processing. Pride was very different this year. I will continue to show up, and be loud!

@nategowdy.bsky.social So nice to see you today!!! Happy pride! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️😆

Photo from the Seattle Gay News Pride guide 2025. Nate Gowdy photographer photos of them and now 2011-2024. Top photo my wife and I in the dykes on bikes seattle parade. Bottom photo the sisters of perpetual indulgence wearing all the colors of the rainbow!

My wife and I once again. This photo has been used so many times over the years, I think we’ll recreate it again tomorrow! Happy Pride everyone!!

Tortie cat with a snaggle tooth close up photo with her head cocked and eyes rolled back looking all sassy!

Babushka is a funny cat!

Two cats with their backs to the camera with their heads down sharing a delicious treat.

These two are adorable!

I do this too! I take my cat to each room and we look out the windows as I point things out. We pass a mirror and I tell him it’s him in the mirror. 😸

What beautiful torties!!! 😻😻

When our indoor and outdoor cats meet at the screen door, we call those HOA meetings! 😹
These cats here seem very serious about their work. Good job!

Very cute closeup of Budapest the orange long haired cat with his mighty white bib coloring on his chest.

Budapest Oliver says good morning! His sheriff responsibilities are very serious.
