Cougar Mtn Hike
Great day for a hike, nice and "warm" with just a little rain in the last half hour.
In addition to some great views and animal tracks, the forest was full of fern and moss. It was green, green, green out there.

Good Weather
After that one day snow affair we had, it is nice to have warmer weather and yes even rain. It feels like spring is certainly in the air, even if it won't last too long. The days are getting longer too, how nice is that?!

Keep on Moving
This winter has been relatively dry and not too cold, except for this short spell now, but pretty much perfect weather to be outside. Of course, with the correct clothing and accessories! That is one thing we all know about, how to dress for northwest weather.
Not that we lack motivation, but the local wildlife and landscapes get us out there. Check out the bald eagle picture from Magnuson Park, the "frozen" pond at the Arboretum and the fog on Lake Washington Blvd. Oh and how could I forget the runners visiting the Hobbit House on the Burke Gilman Trail.
The Sunday full and 1/2 marathoners, as well as the 10km folks are all glad to be out there and back at it again. The weather has also been optimal for some early season bike rides gearing up for STP and other fun rides. Whatever you like to do, keep on moving.
