A Walk at Chambers Bay

Mary and I ventured out to UP and walked the long trail around the new Chambers Bay Golf Course. It is very beautiful and very very hilly. Your calves are going to get a stretch, that's for sure.

It starts you up at the road at Grandview, a few hundred feet above the water with a stunning view of Fox Island, McNeil Island, and the Sound. From there you descend right to the level of the train tracks and the water, walking past what feel like Roman ruins of the old gravel pit. And from there ... well, from there's is back up. And it's a long way back up.

But a fabulous night for it. Actually, it's been a great week for going all around town. We ventured into the Harmon on Monday--their marionberry seasonal ale is very good, by the way--and then climbed to the rooftop Deck at Masa on Wednesday for good tacos and a lot of sun. We also walked most of the length of Ruston Way this week too.

I am glad summer is back. It's good to be outside.
