It's been awhile since I've had an all-day adventure. Today I fixed that with a ride from Mazama up to Washington Pass. It was the perfect day for it: low avalanche danger, mostly clear skies, and not a weekend. I'm sitting on the couch tonight happily tired, slightly sunburned, and grateful for legs that continue to take me where I want to go.

I sat down to have my coffee this morning in my favorite chair by the window... and to my surprise I had company! This tiny downy creature was huddled against our window. It was motionless, but I looked carefully and could see that it was breathing. I wasn't sure what it was at first, but then it woke up, untucked its head, and I saw that it was a little black capped chickadee! ❤ Of course as soon as it moved my dogs noticed it, lost their damn minds, and scared it away. 🙄
Stretching our legs on the way home... It always amazes me how you can go from rainforest to desert in just a couple hours. I really ❤ WA.
We're back in Western Washington for the long weekend. Today Sadie and I snuck off to the woods to go for a run... and take occasional breaks to stop and stare at the giant trees all around us. 🏃‍♀️🐕🌲😯
This morning @tom.dabbles and I dropped Rowan at the bus stop and then headed out for a ride. I'm feeling really grateful to live in such a beautiful place where the trails are so easily accessible. But still. Moving to a new town and starting over is hard. I don't miss the traffic and rain of Seattle, but I do miss our friends and family, and the "village" that was helping us raise Rowan. I know that eventually we will establish that same community here. And in the meantime, I'm glad I have this guy by my side as we figure it all out.
Snow Moon, setting.
