Walker’s friends

August 14, 2013

I mentioned yesterday that a couple of Walker’s good friends were in town this past weekend. I also posted a pretty silly video of us all while they were here. We didn’t capture a lot of their time here because we were so caught up in the moment. There was one evening where we all went to the park and first picked blackberries and ate them right off the bushes and then we sat on the shore by the water and threw rocks in the air and tried to hit them with other rocks. We did that for quite a while. It was so simple but so much fun and I was glad to have a moment that I couldn’t capture with my phone or camera (I left them at home) so I had to soak up the moment a little bit more with my eyes, my nose, and my hands. It was a good night.

Anyhow here are a few pictures from the weekend during one of the many times we were beer tasting.

Pearl snap day 2013

August 13, 2013

Today I hope to make you laugh a little with this funny video. This past weekend Walker had 2 of his good friends in town and we all decided to wear pearl snap shirts on the same day. This event happened all over Seattle on this particular day. It was hilarious. I enjoyed letting loose a little and just having fun.

A long bike ride

August 8, 2013

This past weekend I really wanted to go on an adventure. I was hoping it would involve camping but Walker is back on his study schedule so he gave me all of Saturday but we had to be home that night.

Saturday morning we rode our bikes to the ferry downtown and hopped on the one to Bainbridge island. We visited their farmer’s market and got a few things to add to our picnic lunch and started to bike the 7 miles to Fay Bainbridge state park on the more northern part of the island. It was not an easy ride. The island is full of really big hills and I kept having to take breaks. We also stopped at a garage sale and an estate sale along the way. Finally we made it and after the ride we were hungry!

We explored a bit, almost took a nap, and then headed back south on our bikes. We stopped at a winery about half way back and then rode another 2 miles to another winery, brewery, and a distillery (they are all in the same business park) and did a bit more tasting. Then we biked back into town for dinner before heading back on the ferry. By the time we got to downtown Seattle my legs felt like rubber and we still had just under 2 miles to go but all uphill of course. Walker was encouraging and I was wanting to give up. I walked at one point and was like I can’t make it, but I got back on my bike and pushed on.

When I got home I was sweaty and dead tired but you know what?! I did it! I biked all day and I didn’t give up even when I wanted to so badly. It felt good in a sore kind of way. Ha! I would do it again, I think.
