Bloedel Reserve

The House


After reading a book until 5:00am Friday morning,I finally fell asleep only to be awoken a few hours later with an invitation to journey to Bainbridge island and visit the Bloedel reserve.
Invitation accepted.

It's a lovely garden on the north end of the island just before the Agate pass bridge.
And this is what some of it looks like.

The pond in front of the house


The reflecting pool

That's us down at the far end.

Now it's Saturday night and we just got back from a great show at the Rainier Symphony
Beethoven's Egmont Overture
Srrauss' Til Eulenspiegel
And Dvorak's Seventh Symphony.

Conducted by David Waltman

These guys are good and getting better.

Been a breathtaking three days.
