An Evening Stroll with my Hubby

Every once in a while, after a long day at work, Chad will come home, eat dinner, then want to go for an evening stroll. Last night was just such an evening. A perfect, clear, warm evening.

We went for a nice walk around Clear Creek - and for once didn't pick berries :)

Towards the end of the trail, I looked up, and wished out loud that, we could see the sunset. Usually there are too many clouds in the sky or too many trees blocking the horizon - we hadn't actually seen a Kitsap Sunset yet. Unfortunately though, at that point of the evening, the sunset was still an hour or more away.

As we drove home from the park, Chad "missed" our turn. Come to find out, he wasn't in the mood to go home yet. So, we took a drive, a drive to nowhere specific. Ended up finding an odd little town - Keyport. One general store, one semi-famous restaurant (Whiskey Creek), a huge Naval base and a dead end - so we turned around, and ended up in Poulsbo.

Downtown we found a band, and a town picnic going on. Poulsbo is apparently the place to be on Tuesday nights.

On the way home - we saw it, our first sunset. Actual pink and dark blue, with the moon full and completely unobstructed. Chad made a few u-turns so I could see the moon over the water. Just stunning.


It was a great night - the perfect Tuesday evening.
