No edits! Just the light trying to fight the dark on a cold early morning. It's a good day when our eyes happen to catch the beautiful stuff going by!

Early this past Sunday. It was cold, but there was open sky to be found.

Reply to Do you like living in Washington? by Something-Fierce
Yes, can't imagine a better place to live. I was born here, though, so I am likely not a good example. We have such a wide range of geography (ocean, mountains, rivers, desert, farms), a good range of seasonal changes, so much green, and decent career opportunities.

Cool old houses to oggle up there.

It looked to be a very fine smoking bench!

Reply to Owners of large or dirty dogs: what hacks, products, or tips to you use to help keep your home clean? by sneakybee-
A bowl of "taxes" (kibble) and a towel next to both entries, tile floors, and a small ShopVac instead of a standard home vacuum.

Reply to Meeting my neighbors. by Pizzaparty2022
Lifetime Washington native here, ao happy to see you describe the 'Seattle Freeze' as the quiet politeness I always assumed it to be (rather than the cold aloofness it is often taken as).
That said...I'm not a big fan of people and happen to live behind a locked gate, BUT still do think it's important to know my neighbors and them know me. You never know when things are going to go sideways, and neighbors are your closest community.
I say go for it, just be careful none of them get the impression they can drop by for frequent unannounced social visits in return (~shiver~). 😀

Looks like other than being salmon flavor, it was a good camera once! Would you recommend (if so, please share what kind we've had a bad run of luck with trail cams)?

You're right, bitching on Reddit is more effective than parking in the designated area only.

The parking lot is limited for this short hike and is situated along a 2 lane highway where the speed limit is 60. Trail users should park in the lot, not directly on the highway to avoid dangerous situations. As others noted, if the designated parking lot is full for any hike, it's highly recommended to find another hike. Cheers.

Reply to Muck boots are amazing. by ExtraordinaryMagic
I've only been able to get about 2 years out of Muck boots before having to replace them. The other half wears his more routinely and can only usually get a year run before we have to get new ones.
I'm definitely not saying I know of anything better on the market, but unfortunately, I haven't had BIFL luck with these.
