I like Ferndale better than Hawkdale.

The city council, in Ferndale, WA. has voted to temporarily rename that city Hawkdale. It's Hawkdale this week till after the Superbowl due to Seattle Seahawks playing in the Superbowl.

I'm not a sports fan, but today was a nice day. I decided to bike out the 7, or so miles to Ferndale to see if any road signs had been temporarily changed. I found no changes. It still looks like Ferndale to me.

I found no road signs or banners across Main Street saying Hawkdale.

Not even any reader board was changed to Hawkdale, as I could see.

I mostly went for the ride itself. Here along the Nooksack River.

In Hovander Homestead Park now mostly reopened after recent flooding.

Part of my trip was along the Nooksack River Dike Trail.
