Urban hiking in #seattle today. Such a warm and sunny winter. The plants are acting like it's spring.

Mountains with clouds rolling through in the background framing the Foothills Trail sign and trail weaving into the distance

The Blue Ridge Mountains in their signature colors, the pre-sunset sky beginning to tint orange. In the distance you can see Ceasar's Head and Lake Jocassie

The twisted mountain laurel branches create a spooky feeling forest with a hiker going through it

Spending some time in nature on the other side of the country.

A creek running through a forest with lots of yellow and orange fall leaves

A bike leaning on a bridge over a creek in a forest full of fall colors

A fishing boat on the water with snow capped mountains off in the distance on a partly cloudy day

Fall in Seattle this year has been extra pretty

Not saying much these days on the internet. Still trying to make time for nature and also working a lot

Got to adventure with my new toy this weekend - my first full suspension and also my first carbon fiber bike. After riding hard tails so long it does take some getting used to.

Visiting a waterfall in the Pisgah National Forest as a detour on a mountain bike ride.

I went hiking in Baker Snoqualmie National Forest - no destination in mind. Here the quiet of the forest surrounding the trail was very peaceful.

The Bogachiel rain forest has a lot of little camping spots tucked away along the river. We set up camp in a beautiful stand of birch trees, surrounded by white bark swaying in the breeze.

Timeline cleanse
Some recent adventures that reminded me that joy still matters especially when things are difficult

The forest is a healing place

Finally pulled the trigger and ordered my first full suspension mountain bike. My nether parts are going to thank me next time I hit the singletrack.

At least the flowers from my yard are pretty 😍

Coming up next Saturday—a week from tomorrow.

Obviously the Centennial trail. It's great for bike based brewery hopping. They used to have a brewery passport thing too

Fuck yeah! 5 calls in action

Explored some different bike trails today - the Foothills Trail and the Carbon River Trail. It was good to be in the saddle again

....wow......

I like the motorbike one best

A colorful shot of the Pena Palace in Sintra Portugal, a mix of styles and add ons painted in an array of colors

I find myself day dreaming about running away to Portugal.....

Beers with coozies in the bike bag and a whole lotta city parks.

They were always degenerate goblins

Big villain energy

Child's skull from a sacrifice to bring rain to the Maya suffering in a drought. Forehead flattening indicates the child was royalty

Mayan pottery in a sacrificial cave

Deep inside Barton Creek Cave the stalactites limit access because the reach into the water

This is what it looks like when you enter Chaac's realm.

Maya history is fascinating

The view as you enter a cave via canoe into the Mayan underworld and a place of human sacrifice

Barton Creek Cave Cayo District Belize

Make sure you have high clearance and all wheel drive to get there

Fascism wants us to be stupid

Relateable

Clarissa Falls Resort stairs leading down through lush plants to a series of hut cabins on the Macal River

Large public sculpture in downtown San Ignacio of a stylized Mayan inspired head

1000 Foot Falls considered the highest waterfall in Central America

View from the top of the El Castillo pyramid at the Mayan archeological site Xunantunich overlooking additional ruins, jungle, and mountains

There are a lot of fun adventures around San Ignacio Belize.

And now I want one

Sunset ocean view with sailboats birds and swimmers

This doesn't suck.

#sanpedrobelize

The squirrels will do that

Sunset and mountains

So far Belize has been pretty rad.
