Cedar River Walk and Some History
Even though we’re in the middle of a Seattle Freeze I’ve been missing my walks so yesterday we set out for the Cedar River Trail. We were greeted by other walkers including these ducks who were led by their fearless leader apparently looking for… Continue Reading “Cedar River Walk and Some History”
