Saturday rolls around again

Taken from Galbraith Mountain
This morning the ladies and I walked up Galbraith Mountain for about six miles, maybe a little less, from the Whatcom Falls parking lot on Electric Avenue. I snapped this picture right in the middle of the brisk walk, not sure whether it would even be in focus. You can see the bay in the distance, and foxglove flowers in the foreground. It's not really much of a picture, but it's all I was able to get while moving so fast.

Some of us went out for coffee afterwards and enjoyed some laughs and good company. It's not hard for me to be having a good time, since I've got so many great friends. This is simply the best time of the year to be in the Pacific Northwest, with just a week to go before the summer solstice. People ask me if I've got any plans to go anywhere this summer, but where could I go that would be better than this? That would be an emphatic no.

    Love that your heart and your body are home. And what a beautiful home they have found.

    I agree with you, of course, about the PNW. We don't travel in the summer either.

    Everything is so lush and green. Beautiful!

    I feel the same about traveling now.

    I would think most people would go to the PNW for the summer instead of leaving it. Enjoy that lovely area and we will just be envious.

    You are so lucky to have so many good friends that you can keep active and happy with. Then again, they sure are lucky to have you with them.
