Our Walk to the Inlet

Every morning, the three of us take a nice walk. We do this year round, regardless of the weather conditions. It's a much more pleasant activity in the summer and fall than it is in the winter -- duh. Lately, we've been going to the inlet everyday. It hasn't rained in a while and the tide hasn't been super high in a while, so this means the inlet is hard mud and very easy to walk on.

The wooded walk on the way to the inlet is beautiful.


Sometimes Xena (the beautiful Bouvier) needs a little encouragement to keep moving. The woods are full of great smells! I would think it smelled the same as it did yesterday, but Xena thinks it always needs to be re-smelled.


Peter's Creek leads into Cook Inlet. Here's a view as it heads towards open water.


And the view upstream is just as dramatic.


I realized that I didn't take any pictures of the actual inlet! That will have to wait for another day and another blog post.
