Middle Fork 5/11/2024

Middle Fork of the Snoqualmie River

I don’t think this qualifies as a hike – we only went about 2 miles – but Jan and I visited the Middle Fork on Saturday. It was great to get back out to the mountains and the forest. My arthritic foot did not suffer. I figure to get out to the mountains next week at least a couple of times and see how much I can push it.

As for mountains:

Quartz Mountain

And when we got home Brittany invited us over for dinner in honor of Mother’s Day:

Dean and His Admirers

And today, on Mother’s Day, Jan and I drove up to the city of Snohomish to check out the various antique shops there. The shops are nice but we were unprepared for how crowded the town was. We are far from the only people to choose Snohomish on Mother’s Day. But it was a nice time and we got back safe and sound.
