I had been feeling cooped up so on Sunday, I requested we get outdoors and go for a long walk. We hadn't been to Discovery Park in a while, and had never walked all the way to the lighthouse, so we decided to cross that off our list.
We took the North Beach path and then wound our way around the tip where the lighthouse is (picture to the left) and headed back up the South Trail. We tried to walk pretty fast because we kept hearing distant thunder and noticed how fast the dark clouds in the distance were heading towards Seattle. The skies finally opened up during the last 10 minutes of our walk back up to the parking lot but it wasn't too bad of a downpour. It was kind of funny to see how the people on the trail were still hiking like it was no big deal. It was even funnier to see how many people were in the parking lot getting ready to go on a walk. I tell you - rain doesn't stop these Seattlelites!
