This is me, excited but squinting in the late afternoon light, as we continue hiking of the Washington portion of the Pacific Crest Trail. We picked up where we left off last year--at the trailhead just north of Surprise Lakes campground.
About two miles in, I sprain my ankle. I'm sad here, but it ended up not being that big of a deal.
This is the next morning. Danny and I had this plan where he would ride his bike from our campsite to our car, and then drive to meet me at our starting point for the next day's hike. But...the bike lock didn't unlock (?!?), so we ultimately were forced to cut the tree down in order to keep the bike.
Danny went at the tree with a Swiss Army knife. It took awhile...
But eventually he did it!
We continue our hike and soon realize that the haze has gotten thick because we're moving into a forest fire zone.
This is at 10:30am and you can barely see the sun! We decided to cut our losses and head home a day early.
To make the best of our vacation, we stopped at the Puyallup Fair on the way home. This is Danny with goats and me with dahlias.
