Here there be Dragons

Today [personal profile] eub, [profile] mh75, [profile] bhudson and I went to Mount Rainier and hiked all day through the Paradise trails. We saw pretty flowers, huge trees, uppity chipmunks, and occasionally, through the fog, the top of the mountain. I am sure Eli will post pictures at some point -- I took some too, but most of mine were probably not as good as his, although I did get a shot of said uppity chipmunk trying to get into our bags, which was cute. I didn't see any marmots (the others did when they went up a final hill without me), but we did see a lot of deer. They flap their ears! Flap-flap, flap-flap. It's very cute. All the animals on the trail seemed extremely tame, which I suppose isn't that unexpected.

I saw a lot of landforms and plants that reminded me of dragons when we did the Grove of the Patriarchs trail, so "It's a dragon!" sort of became my cheer for the day.

My legs ache, but it was a good day. Afterwards Eli and Benoit and I went to Taste of India and caught up on gossip.

Hey, you never sent me the pics from the time we went to Mt. Rainier!

Speaking of which, they've won four straight. Mhahakljshkajhskjha.
