Long awaited adventure

It’s been a long time since my last adventure luckily my roommates thought the same thing and decided to head to the beach today.  It’s supposed to be partly cloudy and partly sunny, we’ll see about that.   
Monkey decided to come along today, I am glad that she is always up for an adventure as well.  This bridge was beary scary to cross it moved a lot when my roommates walked across it. 
I asked for an adventure and it looks like I got one.  The trail is covered in greenery.  I can kind of see the trail but not really.  Luckily there were not many thorny branches to scrape up my fur. Hmm, this was supposed to be an easy hike….

It’s springtime at the coast the flowers are blooming and one of my personal favorites is in full bloom, that’s right Fox Glove is out.  I know it can be poisonous but I can’t help but love the flower just because of the name.         

The trees grow strange around here.
My roommates deduced that we hiked up into a cloud.  Monkey and I got wet (not pleased about that) but it was cool looking at the trees through the mist.  I wonder if we are going to see the beach from our viewpoint at the top of the mountain?
Ahhh, made it to the top.  What?  Where is the view?  Phoie, I guess we better sit down and have some lunch and maybe it will clear up so we can see the view.


This is about as clear as it got.  You can kind of see the beach if you look hard. 


A pleasant surprise on the mountain lots of wild flowers which I did not really know lived here at the beach.  That and the abundance of Fox Glove certainly makes up for the lack of view at the top of the mountain.


Coming down I convinced my roommates to walk us to the beach for one quick picture lucky for us they agreed….now if I could only convince them to stop and get some hot chocolate on the way home but I heard them saying there isn’t enough time because they have some gardening to do……

  1. What a great adventure, Little Fox! What did you have for lunch at the top? Honey and chicken? It is always nice to have some company on a hike. I wonder if Uncle Tibbs will come hiking with me.

    1. I had pb and j. Monkey is a vegetarian so I didn't want to offend her. Phones glazed chicken does sound good though. I bet Uncle Tibbs would be a great hiking companion.

  2. I was a bit confused when you said you were going to the beach and then ended up on a mountain! Ahhh... it was a mountain at the beach - beary cool. We have Fox Gloves out there too - just starting - I always think of you. Too bad you didn't get any hot chocolate...

    1. I will have to have a frank conversation with my sekrebeary, I mean why am I paying him $10.00 a month for unclear blogging. I am glad the fox glove is coming out in your area, I hope to see bear grass in the mountains this Summer.

    2. I think you should cut your sekrebeary's salary. Only pay a set amount per blog entry......... the more he blogs, the more money he gets.

    3. Yes, a long nap is always important. Ice cream is also a yummy way to start a fun hiking adventure.
