nwhikerI've been surgery focused, but I want to dial back a few days to Sunday...
First, though, an AC update. After last night's misery, she's doing better. A few more details here. We did keep up the med schedule. It seems the pain was just really bad.
But back to Sunday.
We decided to go on a picnic. The weather was supposed to be pretty nice, and while hiking was out, a picnic was not. So we packed up the car and headed up to Deception Pass.. It is one of our favourite places. The beach we usually go to has tidal pools to check out, there are some short hikes, rocks to throw in the water. Fun. Sunday we decided to go to the state park on the other side of the channel, just because.
It was fun. We ate lunch, threw some rocks, walked down the beach, and did our usual geology/marine biology commentary, to the extent of our abilities.
I love this photo.
More photos at the Flickr set.
After the park, we headed to the Skagit Valley to see what was blooming. We only expected daffodils, and indeed, that was it, the tulips are nowhere near bloom. What was disappointing, however, was the lack of fields of unbloomed tulips. I don't know if it's just my impression, but it seemed like much less acreage in tulips than in previous years.
Anyhow, dafs, with Mt Baker in the background.
