I think I say this every October (and then again on our first warm, sunny day in May), but Seattle has never looked more beautiful.  I’ve been obsessively toting my camera around (you think?!), wanting to capture every Fall color and texture and hazy glow.
Shane and I were so taken with Ravenna Park when we jogged there a couple of weeks ago that we went back on Saturday for a more leisurely stroll, to wind our way up and down the wooded paths and over the bridges, stopping in open fields of grass for a quick game of tag.
Jules dug around for the biggest leaf she could find and proudly waved her autumn flag.
This. Tree.
And, as icing on our golden cake, a zipline! Â Juliette’s new playground favorite.
This season suits her, don’t you think?
On Sunday we set out for our weekly family run, this time at Carkeek Park just north of Ballard. Â And once again, Shane’s trail-scouting skills proved absolutely superb.
Mid-loop, we stopped for a breather at the beach – after swooning over all that green and gold, I forgot how much I love blue and gray, too.
We hit the trail for the final leg of our run, not entirely sure where we were going, but…ka-pow!
It was so pretty there that we let Juliette hop back out of the stroller to soak it all in.
Three cheers for Fall!
