Thanksgiving #hiking with the #bordercollie in #larrabeestatepark right outside of #bellingham #washington.

A closeup photograph of five tiny grey mushrooms growing within a bunch of golden pine needles, dropped brown leaves. A number of brown branches cross the image

A photograph of two warning signs on a post of a two board fence behind which is rough forest and underbrush. The top sign is white background with red type in large letters at the top "FALLING CAN BE DEADLY" in the bottom, again in red, but tiny lettering "Please stay on the trail." In the middle is a black pictagram of a human stick figure falling sideways left off of a ledge. The bottom sign is grey with the letters "NOT A TRAIL" painted on it.

As part of their attempt to dissuade reckless behavior in the park, I can appreciate the State Forest Department's little homage to Magritte: "Ceci n'est pas un sentier", I guess?

A photograph looking down towards the water's rippling edge. The majority of the image is of light brown, weather and sea-worn sandstone rocks smoothed down to rounded surfaces. A worn, darker brown tree trunk is wedged between a group of rocks on the left middle of the image. The water is lightly rippling out in multiple directions from the rocks.

A photograph of a weather and sea-worn sandstone rock outcropping in the immediate lower foreground and right side of frame. Looking out north across a stormy #SamishBay. In the distance are some #SanJuanIslands on the horizon with low hanging storm clouds

A photograph looking out onto the water with cloudy skies. On the background to the left is the shore with mostly evergreens and a rocky shore. In the mid ground is a rock outcropped that extends out into the water. In the foreground is a person in jeans and a green hooded jacket standing on some deeply work sandstone.

Awesome day today!
Got to take one of our semi-annual trips up north with my daughter and her husband. Despite the pissing down rain, we headed up into #SkagitValley onto #ChuckanutDrive

We took a nice walk down to the water in #LarrabeeStatePark to check out […]
