I took a short afternoon walk today in Cowiche Canyon now that it's cooled down. I started at the Scenic Dr trailhead and walked down into the canyon and back. It's still mostly green in the canyon, though the rabbitbrush is starting to bloom, some of the shrubs are starting to show some yellow, and the sumac is starting to turn. It will still be a few weeks, though, before it's really colorful here. The afternoon was sunny and warm with a lots of nice clouds and a cool breeze at times. Even though the canyon is not at it's peak, it's always a nice walk in here.

I think we(3 of us) ran into you as you were photographing with a tripod in the middle of the rail trail section. We told you about the butterflies we saw. Thank you for identifying the bush they were on as the rabbitbrush. Have enjoyed your trip reports for years and nice to finally talk with you!
