On Saturday we went on a little hike with a few of Mallar's co-workers. We drove just north of Seattle to Snohomish County were we walked the Lime Kiln Trail. It was a pretty easy 6.5 miles with low elevation and a lot of moss. The layers of green were really striking and the views of the Stillaguamish river quite pleasant as well. We saw the historic lime kiln and a collection of railroad artifacts (scattered about) from the years of heavy mining and logging (1890s to 1930s). It was so refreshing to be out in the crisp air all day long, surrounded by enormous trees and marching along muddy paths. It looks like we will try to get out hiking at least once a month.
