Snowshoe season is open

At long last, we opened up our season. We went up to Talapus Lake on Sunday with Keren and CJ. It's an easy 45 minutes from our house. My favorite part of snowshoeing is bounding down the hills through the forest.

As soon as we got home to Seattle, it started snowing. We got about 2 inches on Capitol Hill. Beautiful. By morning it was slushy and not slick (phew- easy bus ride!). Brian predicts one more layer of snow in the city before Snowpocalypse 2008/9 is done.
