Winter Hikers


Yesterday found us on an impromptu 3 mile hike in the snow. We had been antsy all day and after asking the neighbors if we could take Wren with us decided to put on our suits and boots and make the best of a windy winter day.
It was brisk and refreshing and completely kicked our butts. The big hill that starts the long trail in winter is a doozy (except for Wren who ran circles around us the whole time).
It was peaceful and exactly what we needed. Towards the end of the hike we even went off trail trying to find a huge raven that was making all sorts racket at us.
After the hike we were both tired and happy and came home to a dinner of fresh steamed broccoli, mini salt potatoes and wild salmon that was caught off the coast of Scotland...Good Day!
