Hiking with purple fuzzy handcuffs

Last week I hiked Ebey's Landing, because I saw Craig Romano list it as his favorite winter hike in Western Washington on an episode of Evening Magazine. I've already blogged about this hike before, so you can read the guide I wrote then.

On this hike, I added purple fuzzy handcuffs to my hiking pack.

And I hiked with them attached the whole way.

I really did.

All because of this:

Don't judge me because I had them in my bedroom until now.

I made the hike involve them. It was a great piece to weird out people with.

Hiking Partner: "What are you doing with those again?"

Me: "Tie me to a tree, baby. You know I like it!"

Other hikers: *horrified looks*

Oh yes, it was fun.

I brought along my little Ozzy, and she had her dog, so we had two hyper doggies that we drove all the way down to Coupeville to take on a five mile hike.

It was sunny and not too cool out. I think it must have been in the 60's. I didn't wear the jacket I packed at all. I got tan lines from my t-shirt in February!

Seattle has had its wettest winter on record, so this was a rare sunny day we took full advantage of.

Hoping for more sunny days suitable for hiking!
