A very Bainbridge Sunday
If you're a regular reader of this page and have a good memory, you may recall mention of the Bloedel Reserve back in July. Heading into last weekend we had a forecast for nice(ish) weather and put out a call to visit the reserve... As the days progress our party dwindled down to just Clodagh and myself but nonetheless we perservered into the reserve. They make a big deal about trying to preserve a very tranquil environment and being environmentally friendly and whatnot on the website. I don't think they quite achieved the level of tranquility they seemed to be shooting for, but it was still a relaxing experience to just stroll around an area with not many people. I wouldn't take kids, and you can't bring in pets, but people who are interested in plants or just enjoy a low-key walk will like it.
I did manage to take some fairly decent shots on the trip - below are two of my favorites (or two that I've actually managed to run through post-processing and post online :))... As usual, I'm planning on posting more "soon" but probably won't add many, if any at all.

And some of the fall foliage at the Reserve:
Of course we rounded out the trip with a visit to Mora for a cone on our way back to the ferry - is a trip to Bainbridge complete without stopping by there?
