Natural Beauty (new pics added)

When we moved here, spring was beginning and flowers beautiful flowers were in bloom. We will add more pics of the flowers later.  Below are some Cherry Blossoms growing right outside our apartment, (with Mount Si in the background). Also a red Burning Bush that amazed us since it was like an ultraviolet or hyper-color red.

 

 

 

As Summer came around, about late June early July, everyone around seemed to be in a good mood.  Sunny 70 degree days, makes summers here beautiful and enjoyable.  The majority here love the outdoors and pass the time either hiking, biking, camping, swimming in the lakes and rivers and going to many small town festivals.    When Aimy's parents/grandparents came they too went with us to hike the Twin Falls trail which is another waterfall seen at the end of that 1 hour hiking trail. Below are some pics of Snoqualmie Falls and our hike just 10 minutes from where we live.

Another impressive thing is all the wildlife around the area.  No we haven't seen a bear yet but we might soon.  Along the hike we saw cute little chipmunks.  As we drive to the hall sometimes, we see mother dears leading their fawns as they eat blackberries that grow wild on the side of the road.  Most amazing are Elk that we see once in awhile in a field just 50 feet off the road. They gather in herds of 30-50.  Below are some pics of the animals.
