It’s been almost a month since our last post. Sorry. We got a little busy for a while. Work is picking up for both of us, we’ve been trying new restaurants (there’s so many!), finding new grocery stores (nothing we like as much as H-E-B Central Market), visiting new parks and hanging out with friends.
We are assembling our ski-wear, which is a whole new style of wardrobe with many rules and layers. We went to the Ski-Dazzle convention where we snagged deeply-discounted ski jacket and pants plus a ton of information from ski resorts from Idaho all the way up to Canada. I can’t say that we are going to ski, but we’re super excited about snow tubing (can you say Schlitterbaun in the snow?), snowshoeing and maybe some snow angels are in the near future.
We visited Discovery Park. It was a really cold wintery day on the beach.
All the dogs were sick one weekend, so we stayed home and cuddled on the couch (after we finished cleaning up after them).
We took a very quick trip to Widbey Island. After a short ferry ride from Mukilteo to Clinton, we headed up a scenic drive. We drove past a frozen pond and saw patches of snow on the ground! We stopped in a cute little town called Coupeville. We had brunch, checked out the shops and walked along the shoreline. From there we headed to an area was called Ebey’s Landing, which is a National Historic Reserve. We hiked across a prairie and up to a bluff overlooking the Puget Sound.
We took family photos at Kerry Park. It’s the place to go for the iconic Seattle photo (we mentioned it in our last post). Take a look at one of the outtakes.
