Mother Nature is still in charge.

Dropping a mid-November storm on Whidbey Island Monday, she reminded us all of her power.

A semi-truck almost got blown off of Deception Pass Bridge, I lost power for 16.5 hours (the horror, the horror…), and John Fisken waded out into the blusteriness to get the pics seen above and below.

Keeping an eye on the action.

Different town, same game.

Coupeville High School grad Dante Mitchell is now working in Oak Harbor, coaching basketball at North Whidbey Middle School.

That follows on the heels of his time as a Wolf, where he was both a player, and later, a coach, continuing the work of mom (and hoops guru) Avis.

As Dante worked the sidelines Monday in a season-opening matchup against Mt. Baker Middle School, wanderin’ photographer John Fisken was on hand to document the moment.

Welcome to the mud bowl.

Driving rain turned Mickey Clark Field into a magnificent mess Thursday, as Coupeville and Friday Harbor fought through three overtimes to settle the Northwest 2B/1B League title.

While the win ultimately went to the visiting Wolverines, the game gave wanderin’ photographer John Fisken plenty of opportunity to snap his cameras.
