Thursday, June 15

After showing restraint this afternoon at SoulFood Books, I went for a walk around Greenlake this evening and lost all resolve at Title 9 Sports.

I gave in and bought a new hiking book: Day Hike! Central Cascades: The Best Trails You Can Hike in a Day and Runner's World Complete Book of Women's Running: The Best Advice to Get Started, Stay Motivated, Lose Weight, Run Injury-Free, Be Safe, and Train for Any Distance.

I’ve been talking with a friend about going away for the weekend--either to Canada or to Mt. Rainier. (There are these cute cabins at the base of the mountain I discovered a few years ago). Otherwise, Day Hike has lots of trails that sound tempting within a couple hours of Seattle.

I love that series of hiking books - but before you buy the other two, I think I can get them at a great price for you. ;)
I think it is pretty cool that we share this love of walking in the wilderness! Now we just need to find a time to enjoy it together!

You’re so cute. You already know that I’m going to eventually buy the other two books.(Actually, I think there are three others: Day Hike! North Cascades, Mt. Rainier, and Olympic National Forest).

And here I was so proud of myself for not buying the many books I wanted at SoulFood...Novels like
Love in the Present Tense will have to wait until school calms down a bit.

Whenever you have some extra time, I’d love to go hiking with you. I'm glad that we share this passion, too. :)
