Today we made appointments to go see a naturopathic doctor on Whidbey Island. We drove about 45 minutes to Mukliteo, then took the short ferry over to Whidbey. We had a few hours before our appointments, so we ate lunch and went for a short hike down to the beach.
Here's where I have to brag on my amazing mom for just a minute. She is 70 now and is freakin' awesome. She handled the not-beginner trail, complete with hills and a stretch of pretty steep stairs, like a 40-year-old (ask me how I know). She rocks.

Gorgeous beach-front park. I snagged some driftwood for my mantle from here.
(Don't tell anyone...I don't think you're supposed to take driftwood...?) |

Our hike down to the beach was really a great way to burn off lunch and enjoy
the local woods. The boys were running circles around us, but we all made it
down to the beach together. :)

We spent about a half an hour walking on the beach barefoot, soaking
up some sun, and beachcombing. |
