Sunny Weekend!

This weekend was beautiful, sunny, and cold! We woke up on Saturday to no clouds and beautiful blue skies. It was such a clear day that we could actually see a mountain that I didn't even know was there. It kind of looks like a cloud in the sky.


We decided to try out another off-leash dog park called Westcrest Park. It was a cool place and not too overcrowded. It is located in West Seattle, so it was about a 15 minute drive from downtown. There was an open area for the dogs to just run around and then there was an actual trail you could walk on with trees on both sides that blocked the wind. With the wind and the humidity, it dropped the temperature so it felt like it was way below freezing. Both Cody and I had on undershirts, T-shirts, a hoodie, a jacket, and a hat and we were still cold.

I felt like I was in the middle of a forest!

Here is Cody in the "forest" too.

Vega wouldn't stop to even take a drink of water, she was having so much fun. This is the one picture I got when she actually sat for a second.

On Sunday, we decided to go visit Pike's Place and check out the vendors. It was another sunny day, but much warmer. It was still a little windy, but nothing like Saturday.

In the middle of Pike's Place. Yes, it was very crowded, as usual.

It was a great weekend with lots of sun, even if it was cold. We just get a little confused when it's so cold and there isn't any snow.

  1. Looks like fun, but you need your ski gear on! We had Seattle weather in Phoenix on Sat, it rained all day!

  2. That mountain is Mount Rainier...and that is funny that you have never seen it until now. It is a national park. Looks like you had a great weekend!
