Hey, thanks for the recommendation! I finally picked up that book you mentioned last week. I'm only a few chapters in, but the pacing is really good so far. The main character just got to the part where they explore the old lighthouse, and the description of the creaking wood and the salt spray was incredibly vivid. I can definitely see why you thought I'd like it. How far did you get into it? Let me know if you want to swap notes once I finish. I should be done by next weekend. It's been a while since I got absorbed in a mystery like this. The author does a fantastic job of building suspense without relying on cheap thrills. I'm curious to see how the subplot about the missing letters ties into the main storyline. Anyway, thanks again for the tip! Let's grab coffee soon and chat about it.

So we finally tried that hiking trail out past the reservoir this weekend. The map said it was moderate difficulty, but honestly, the first two miles were pretty steep. The view from the top made it totally worth it though. We packed a picnic but forgot napkins, classic us. The wildflowers are just starting to bloom up there. Definitely bring water if you go, there aren't many shaded spots until you get past the ridge. Let me know if you want the GPS coordinates for the trailhead. Also, wear sturdy shoes! My sneakers were not cutting it on the loose gravel. I think I'll invest in some proper hiking boots before our next trip. It was such a nice escape from the city for a few hours. We're already planning to go back next month.
