What a great day!

Today was a beautiful day in Seattle. It was near 70 degrees, apparently the record high for today was 67, it will be intersting to hear if we beat it! Who can pass up a gorgeous day? Not us! My mom and I went out and hiked Little Si this afternoon. Due to it being a weekday the the trail was pretty chill which was nice. The past few times there have been a lot of people even when it was raining! I had a bit of a rough time going up today. I don't know if it was because it was warm or because I was just tired. Yesterday I worked in the garden for 5 hours so my butt was a bit sore today. Also, my pack weighed in at 25 pounds. However, I didn't take anything out from Saturday's hike. The saddest part of the day was that I forgot the trekking poles. I was really excited to be going with my mom. I was going to show her how nice using poles were till I went and forgot them. I learned that trekking poles are great for two things: you knees and keeping your fingers from swelling! When we got home I checked our fundraising page and we passed the $3000 mark, we're at $3145 only $3855 left! Wahoo! That really made the great day better! To top off the evening, my cousin and uncle from Minnesota were in town for the night so we got to do some catching up with them. What a great day!
