Seattle Postcards: P Patch

I found this postcard at a garden center in Seattle and I just love it. I could never send it away. I did not realize that P-Patch is supposedly a Seattle term. I know in England, they call them allotments, maybe they are community gardens in other parts of the USA?  Basically a piece of land where someone can have a little garden for themselves, but shared with the rest of the community.

Hikeathon 2023: Wrap up

To wrap up hikeathon this year, I was able to complete 30 miles of hiking for the month! 

I hiked 4 miles on the Heritage Trail, Bellefields Trail and Lake to Lake Trail in Bellevue, WA. I got up before sunrise to beat the heat and the crowds. 

That red dot is the sun through the smokey haze of wildfires

I hiked 4 miles on the Bluff Trail at Montana De Oro State Park in Los Osos Oaks, CA

I hiked 1 mile on the Railroad Safety Trail in San Luis Obispo, CA

I hiked one mile on the Backbone Trail in Fullerton, CA

I want to thank everyone who contributed this year, we easily reached our $1000 goal!!

And I hope everyone can get out and enjoy our trails both remote and urban.
