Actually I did two plunges on January 1st in one of the locations pictured above
I never came across a bear IRL but did see a pack of young bob cats like 15 yards away last spring in a different woodsy location where I work out as well.
Funny thing, I was at that location last night and remembered that encounter. Then my mind started spinning out of control: I bet they are fully grown cats now and you are here by yourself in almost complete darkness, looking like a nice snack on this cold, wet night
Letโs just say I finished my work out at much higher pace
Seattle area, the Eastside to be exact.
First picture is the view from Newcastle Golf Club, the other two were taken in DT Kirkland, Lake Washington waterfront area.
If you donโt mind low key village vibes without any resorts, I highly recommend checking out Lo de Marcos about an hour up north. The beach is 2km long and most of the time it feels like youโre having it all to yourself.
Or Sayulita and San Pancho for more touristy small towns, which are even closer to PV.
