And we remember that we love Seattle too

Toward the end of a lazy early afternoon brunch on Sunday we decided to go for a hike. A little over an hour later we were on a track in the Cascades, headed for a waterfall. Anselm ran the entire uphill mile there, while Eliot finished her nap in the car (and Dad read a book). Anselm climbed rocks at the waterfall til they joined us an hour later. Eliot then climbed on the rocks and scaled logs, and then walked the full mile back with me; the lads ran on ahead-- which is to say, Blaise ran to catch up with the vanishing boy).
