Northern Lights

By

I can't believe we were able to see the Northern Lights last weekend! It was pretty cool. We had a late night catching the ferry so was just getting to bed around 11:30pm when I looked outside and saw the lights. We quickly put on some jackets on top of our PJs and went out to take photos. The photos are just using our iphones, and they turned out really spectacular! To the naked eye though, the colors weren't as vibrant. I could definitely see the shades of colors, shapes and even the solar waves but they aren't as crisp or distinct as the photos. The waves also moved very slowly but sort of pulsated, like the sky was alive. It was super neat to see, and now I can cross this off my bucket list!

Happy new year!!

Goodness, it's already 2025! It's been a really long time since we posted!  We had a very lazy new year. We flew back from LA on the evening of the 31st so spent the last remaining hours of 2024 cozying up on the couch and then fell asleep before it even hit midnight! On New Years day, we slept in, cleaned up the house and then did a quick hike the next day. All in all, a good start to the year! Nora's new blanket hoodie. Cold and muddy trails. We're not in LA anymore! We hiked the Primrose trail that follows Coal Creek.

Ski weekend in Leavenworth

By
We had made plans many moons ago to take the MLK weekend for a short getaway to the Leavenworth area. We've been a few times in years past and it's always a fun place to visit especially in the wintertime. But this year, with COVID and all, we weren't sure whether we wanted to go but I'm super happy that we went. We had a blast and was able to keep safe by keeping to ourselves! First up, we left bright and early so that we can pack in a snowshoe/winter hike on the drive over. The last time we went , we had stopped for some snowshoeing on the way back and it was epic! Unfortunately, this time the snow was old and not nearly as soft and fluffy so while it was a nice diversion with some pretty views, it wasn't as great as we had hoped. The fun part though, was that we brought our camping stove with us so we did some tailgating in the parking lot and had a fancy ramen meal for lunch. It was super nice to warm the belly with the yummy noodles and broth! That evening, we ...
