February in Coeur d'Alene
The skies are gray and the daytime temperatures are hovering in the low 30's. This is typically weather and it results in a snow, melt, snow, melt cycle. The nice part of this weather is that it is cold enough to keep most people inside which left Tubbs Hill to only the intrepid hikers like us. We went for a hike yesterday and saw two other people on the hill. The beauty of the muted shades of blue, gray and green, the hypnotic power of the water in the lake plus the solitude made the hike surreal. Molly was ecstatic to be out walking with her favorite people and away from the black and white brat at home. Steve and I were toasty in our North Face Jackets. (Thanks North Face for giving my kid a job and the great employee discounts!) Remember- there is no such thing as bad weather- just bad clothing!

I loved reading these blasts from the past... do continue on.
