labor day weekend

Last weekend had us busy with leisurely activity. Saturday we started out window shopping; looking for a camera (which was a touch depressing as our budget doesn't allow for some of the beauties we saw) and perusing a music store. Then we headed for a nearby park with a view of Hat Island and the Port of Everett. Once there, we spent an hour or two. Jeff provided inspiring music while I drew. That evening family stopped by on their way back to Bremerton, and we ended up going with them.

Sunday we spent the day inside with the family, and they all flew out early Monday morning, leaving Dad and us behind. :( So Monday we meandered to the Blackberry festival and then through the ghost town that is downtown Bremerton. There were a few Art Studios open, and I met one of my old art professors. Also, there was a disturbingly large amount of old Pyrex cookware in a museum we happened across. We finished our Bremerton exploring by driving through some of the waterfront areas east of Manette. Unfortunately the price of real estate there is exhurbinate, or we mayn't have left.

We thouroughly enjoyed our lazy three day weekend, and look forward to many more!!!

hmmm... what a weird museum. where was that at?

we were in b-town for labor day weekend. it was so nice being away from the hustle of downtown. we just barely missed the blackberry festival. we caught a tiny bit of it walking to the ferry on our way back to town. i saw some huge kid toys but that was about it. did you have fun? do the soccer girls still have a booth ;)

hope all is well.
