Lake Sammamish Trail, trees and shopping December 2-14, 2011

Earlier this month we saw the colorful warming of the bike rack.

This day we have the colorful warming of trees ...

       My friend Dorothy and I had a good ride on the trail. It was cold at 42 degrees, but we were bundled up for it and kept warm enough. We were happy to have a dry day even if cloudy and cold. We made it to  our snack stop at the outdoor shelter, enjoyed a quick bite and retraced our path back to the cars. Of course if felt colder after a good warm up stop.          

 

Having shown Jaydon meeting Santa in a "screaming" manner, perhaps this photo indicates that he would be happier being Santa. He remains anxious for Santa to come to his house and his wish for a Christmas gift from Santa is ..... an apple. As his Dad Jeremy says, let's enjoy this for the moment. Next time to wish it may be for another apple, but that could be an Apple iPhone, iPad, iBook or any new "apple" there is.

This month also included a shopping trip to Seattle (Nordstrom) with Lynne. She has titled this photo she took as Shopping with Nancy. Well, Lynne had accidentally locked herself out of her adjoining dressing room when she came out to model something for me to see. I went out to see her, and to see if I could help her open her door, and had not guarded my own door from slamming shut, thus locking me out of the other adjoining dressing room. 

There was no one around at the moment (our stylist was out looking for clothing choices for us) so what to do? I have crawled under doors in worse places! So I slithered under her door and let her in. Then I had to crawl under the dividing wall to get to my own room. It worked! Our stylist was a bit taken aback when we told her of the episode, and was so sorry she had not been able to leave the doors unlocked for us.
