Weeping Willow Lunch

Weeping Willow Lunch

I don’t know who these women were and I don’t know if they were actually having lunch. But it was the right time of day for it and it makes a better story in a lovely setting. This pond and willow are at the Bloedel Reserve on Bainbridge Island.

Here’s a reminder:

I have a book available on the Kindle site. It is a memoir titled 60 Years of Hiking in the Olympics. It has over 100 photographs and covers more than 100 different hikes and backpacks. I have it priced to share at $2.99 (US).

Calypso Orchids

Calypso Orchids

One of my favorite springtime wildflowers is the calypso orchid. It is fairly common in the woods in Washington State. The group below, mixed in with yellow stream violets, is at the Bloedel Nature Reserve on Bainbridge Island … I have never seen such a large grouping in the wild.
