RSVP A 200+ Mile Bike Ride!

Beth and Merrick went on the Cascade Bicycle Club's annual Ride Seattle to Vancouver and Party ride with their friends Andy and Milo.  It's a 2 day ride; Seattle to Bellingham the first day, then Bellingham to Vancouver the second. Great weather and company.  And we love Vancouver! Granny Janny and Papa came up from Eugene to watch Tiger Lily and they had fun too.  Milo came in first on the second day of the ride!  He's a monster, that one.

Hike on the Pacific Crest Trail and Hunt for Tiger Lilies

This year we went looking for Tiger Lily's namesake on the Pacific Crest Trail at Snoqualmie Pass. It was our first time on this part of the trail.  Very beautiful and not nearly as busy as we expected. We'll be coming back here for sure!

Olympic National Park Bike Ride - "Ride the Hurricane"

Merrick went to Port Angeles on August 4th to ride in an annual event up the road to Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic National Park on the 5th.  The weather was beautiful and the wildflowers were in full bloom.  The ride is almost entirely uphill to the top which was slow an sweaty but quite enjoyable. The ride downhill was fast! Click here to see them all at once or on the picture for a slide show.
