So, winter weather has made the hiking plan fall by the wayside. That, and something else that's been taking up a bit of my free time lately. Joe's created a blog about the newest adventure in our lives.
We did manage to fit in a hike before the snow started falling. In mid-November we went on our second hike to Madison Creek Falls near Port Angeles.

It was a bit rainy and there were slippery fallen leaves on the trail, but we enjoyed this SHORT hike (less than 1/4 mile and it's paved for wheelchair access). See all the leaves? This is why we're waiting for nicer weather to do more hikes...
The falls stopped us short as we rounded a corner in the trail - you don't think you're that close until you are suddenly confronted by the 50 ft. falls just feet from the trail. Pretty amazing that scenes like this are not far from where we live and yet for years we've never had the motivation to go out and find them.
Before we left we wandered across the street to take a few pics of the rain-swollen river (and to get a bit of extra walking in - 1/4 mile just doesn't a hike make in my book).
