Yesterday Logan, Heidi, Chazz and I went on a hike at Tiger Mountain. We also brought Sophie along. Sophie went on a very short hike with us at the Living Desert in Palm Springs, and she said she wanted to go on a hike with us again. We invited her to come with us to Tiger Mountain. She was quite a hiker – we walked three miles and she barely complained! In fact, I think she really enjoyed it. We walked on the Swamp Trail, the Adventure trail and the Bus trail. Trails at Tiger Mountain all have spiffy names. They’re also pretty well marked. Most of the Mountain is really more of a park than a wilderness area, though parts of the Mountain off the beaten path are pretty wild.
Logan loved having Sophie along. He was happy to see her as soon as she got into our car. During the hike Logan stayed awake the whole time – and he also didn’t complain. He had fun sitting in his backpack - I gave him a couple of sticks to play with, and he happily poked me in the ear and hit me on the head with them the whole hike.
Today we all went to the big plant sale at Meridian Park. The sale benefits Seattle Tilth – an organization that provides educational resources for organic gardening. We bought about ten plants – tomatoes, squash, peppers and other hard to start plants. Oddly, they didn’t have any strawberries. We planted them today, while Logan played in the yard. I think he spent most of the day outside. It was warm-ish, but not sunny.
