Kevin and I both had the last week off. We got a lot done around the house and took off for some one-day adventures close to home. The weather was wet and we found some snow! Kevin and I helped clear a large log from the trail and I saw my first avalanche on the way up to Lake Serene near Index.

We hiked up to Lake 22 near Mt. Pilchuck in a hail and thunderstorm.


Through the mist, we could see the lakes that give Seattle all it's drinking water from the viewpoint at Rattlesnake Ledge.

About: We're going blue water sailing, but first there are things we need to do to get ready. We're here to share what we are doing to prepare for our trip. We hope to inspire those who might like to do the same and learn from those who have stories and lessons to contribute to us.
Extra: I make jewelry too! Sweet Nirvana Jewels was created out of a passion for beads and sailing. All profits are put in to Jamie and Kevin's boat fund, which supports the adventures they have together sailing the waves and racing the wind. http://www.etsy.com/shop/sweetnirvanajewels
