Last weekend Thor & I headed up to Seattle to visit Kathryn and Brian in their new house, enjoy a nice Saturday brunch and walk with Aunt Susanna, and check out the trails at Duthie Hill - a ride area just east of Seattle that we've never been to.
Kathryn and Brian's house is beautiful! And back in the old neighborhood where I used to live with Kathryn - so it feels much more like 'home'. Brunch on Saturday was fun - it was great to see Aunt Susanna and catch up a bit, and we all enjoyed a post brunch walk out to the locks in the sun - very relaxing!
Sunday we got up and strolled our way to Herkimer Coffee with the dogs - it was all I could do not to order a delicious old-fashioned glazed donut like I used to do back in my studying days. So tempting! Thor and I packed up to roll out to Duthie about mid-day to give Kathryn a chance to catch up on yard-work and get herself ready for the week. Duthie is super fun! They have everything from beginner trail to experienced free-ride trails with large drops (large from my perspective....probably not large if you're used to Whistler style riding). Anyhow - we had a great time puttering around on the trails - and I rode my first step down off a skinny! Check out the pictures from the weekend below.

| I think this might be my favorite family picture of late. Thor/Kathryn are hilarious - Aunt Susanna has a beautiful smile - and Brian's face is priceless: "really? I married into this?" |

| The stepdown I rode. It's a baby-one, but it's a start! I'm including this pic so you have a clear idea of what I was riding. All the pictures with me are suuuuper fuzzy! |

| Coming off the step down. You can see once i'm in the picture that it's not really all that big. Fun though! |
