September 1st; Mount Walker

I sure hope that everyone had a great Labor Day weekend, because I definitely did! Instead of driving away and pitching a tent like most, I was lucky enough to spend the weekend with my great old friend, Felicia.

Fel and I go way back--we were inseparable throughout most of high school, but then drifted apart as, tragically, many good friends do. We reconnected through Facebook last year and have been rekindling our friendship.  Unfortunately, she still lives closer to our hometown of Spokane whereas I'm across the state, near Seattle.  We've discovered through texting and a few brief encounters that we still have many things in common despite so much lost time. 

She arrived on Friday night with her Heeler-mix, Banjo, loyally at her side.  Penny was happy to have a visitor as well, and the two canines became good friends in no time!

Saturday morning we took a tour around Gig Harbor, then went to Bandix dog park (I sure love that place)--it was a great place for the dogs to get their wiggles out...because later we drove for about 1.5 hours up to Quilence, WA to Mount Walker Trail. We drove to the top of the mountain to enjoy the viewpoints, and then did a little bit of hiking too.
