Gone Hiking

April 21, 2013 by Hillary 9 Comments

Apparently Sundays are for hiking. 

Today’s outing included SPF 45 and (more) moo-ing cows. 

My mom reminded me today – in the midst of kicking up dust on the trail – that I used to turn up my nose if she asked me to go hiking. Now, I’ll initiate a hike. I’d rather be running the trails, but with a bum knee, any movement under the blue skies is appreciated.

    I love cows haha! Back in MD, I worked at the USDA and had a beautiful view of a farm and lots of cows. My weekend was spent working at the hospital filling some internship hours. No fun.

    It looks like you had such beautiful weather for a hike! Jealous! Haha. I am looking forward to checking out new trails since I just moved to Chicago when the weather gets a little warmer. :-)

    Those views are gorgeous! I’m the same way; I used to get so bored while hiking…now, I can go for miles and miles and never once get bored. Being so immersed in nature is such a wonderful experience.

    Also, love the cows! Definitely reminds me of good ol’ rural Ohio haha.

    Your hiking adventure looks amazing – there is nothing I love more than being outdoors, especially on a gorgeous sunny day! Your photos are spectacular, I don’t think I’d wanna leave!

    Looks like a beautiful weekend for a hike! And some quality time with Mom is always a plus. It’s getting hot down here in the East Bay and the hills are turning yellow already!

    I love hiking! I definitely think it’s one of those things you appreciate more as you get older, you know? I wasn’t a big hiker when I was little either…
    Beautiful photos! I’m a little jealous of your tank top & shorts weather!

This rare blue sky day in February is having me da This rare blue sky day in February is having me day dreaming about long, light-filled summer days... they’ll be here soon.

Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴 I was expect Leavenworth, WA • Where To Eat🍴

I was expecting all things beer, brats and pretzels in Leavenworth (not really my jam) 🍺🥨🧀, and while there’s plenty of it, I was delighted to find plenty of delicious eats for my “foodie” taste. 

We went to all of these 3 places more than once during our quick stay - highly recommend! 

☕️ @argonautespressobar: Located at one end of Front Street, this adorable coffee bar has delicious espresso drinks, breakfast items, and the best view! 

🥐 @tumwaterbakery: Incredible pastries, avocado toast on artisanal bread that’s a feast for your eyes... and I’m eager to go back and try their wood-fired pizza! 

🍜 @yodelinbroth: Literally some of the best food I’ve had (ever!), and that’s saying a lot. I had the Yodelin soup with housemade wild PNW halibut bone coconut curry broth, udon noodles, heaps of veggies and wild salmon - it was nourishing to my core as we ate it outside in 30 degree weather. I even bought some of the broth to recreate this meal at home, yum!

winter wonderland getaway ✔️ We had snow much winter wonderland getaway ✔️

We had snow much fun exploring the picturesque Bavarian town of Leavenworth, WA for a much-needed mid-week getaway to the mountains. 🏔

We stayed in a cozy little cabin @logecamps right on the Wenatchee River (one day I’ll be back to stay at the stunning @phleavenworth), played in Enchantment Park, took a drive to Lake Wenatchee, and discovered some of the best food downtown (I’m saving my food recs for another post).

Nestled between the snow-capped Cascade Mountains with the river running through town, it’s quite magical in the middle of winter. ❄️ I’m already dreaming of heading back for some summer adventures!
I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in I’m sure Koba is wondering why we ever lived in Florida for two years.
