BIKE AND HIKE

A sunny Saturday on Whidbey Island. This area is so crowded, looks like everyone from Seattle has decided to spend a day at Deception State Park. By early afternoon there were "PARK FULL" signs at all of the entrances.

This morning after breakfast, the bikes and helmets were assembled and off they went for a spin around Cranberry Lake. There were a lot of cars beginning to clog up the roads and the parking lots, so the ride was short but beautiful.

After a quick lunch, my humans wanted to take a short hike in the park to the bridge. Forget about it! There was no place to park the car and there were hundreds of people walking around. No one was wearing a mask. Warren said the parking lot looked like the one day sale at Macy's, so as soon as they could, they left the park and headed out to another area of the Park. Across the highway there was the Marina and Cornet Bay. Here is a picture is looking across the bay to the Deception Pass bridge.

Still looking for a place to hike, they continued south on the highway to Dugualla Bay State Park to find the South Park Trail. By now it was too late to take a long hike to the beach so they had to be content with a hike through the trees. It was very pretty, and they had the trail to themselves.

Gianni is still in the hospital and we are waiting to hear the outcome of more tests today. Keeping my paws crossed that he will be back home soon.
