One just a few weeks ago - look back a few posts for a Sunday ride report.

There were a few of them and they were all in that condition. I don't think anyone would want to eat off them, but they made for good photo ops. <br /><br />When I was diagnosed with Crohns through surgery in 1991, then two years later had 8 cm of bowel removed I spent a lot of time in and out of the hospital - the last time I was on 21 pills a day for about a year. Since then I have had an aversion to drugs and medications and hate to even take Zyrtec for my seasonal allergies. Luckily it was 20 years ago and I am healthy now and just take my vitamins.<br /><br />I'll see what I can do about more hiking when the job doesn't get in the way.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-24173523793397445972013-05-17T17:39:01.540-07:002013-05-17T17:39:01.540-07:00Breath taking photos!

Very nice. I, too, have mild exercise induced asthma which went undiagnosed until I was older. Explained my difficulties with my endurance when I was a more competitive type. I went the inhaler route, but like you I can compensate and do.<br /><br />Have fun on the run/walk.

When I saw one of the waterfall pictures with the pool of water under it I thought I was in Hawaii or something. Nope, too cold for that. Our water temperature is just above freezing right now because of the snow melt run off. <br /><br />Glad you liked the pictures.Trobairitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453398807198746434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10735041579950338.post-37359470765685643352013-05-17T15:26:29.610-07:002013-05-17T15:26:29.610-07:00They are good pooches, even when Oakleigh tries to...They are good pooches, even when Oakleigh tries to sit on my lap in the Pathfinder, lol. <br /><br />I'll see if I can find pictures of the salmonberries when ripe.
