Global Warming!

What a summer it has been in our corner of the world, but our walkers and hikers commented time and again about the lack of water, lack of snow and unusually warm days.  Some good news is that the Curtis Glacier is still there on the western slope of Mount Shuksan  Amy shared pictures from the hike to Lake Ann.
