A Garden Sanctuary on Bainbridge Island: Bloedel Reserve

The weather may be frightful this time of year, but unless you want to be overcome with cabin fever, it's time to embrace the chilly weather and get out of the house for awhile.

This last weekend I pushed myself out the front door and took a drive to Bainbridge Island.  Visiting the Bloedel Reserve on the island had been something I'd meant to do for a long time.  Luckily the weather cooperated with us for the most part and we were able to explore the whole 150 acres without being rained on.

There is something for everyone at the reserve.  Everything from manicured gardens to lush evergreen forests can be found within it's boundaries.  Even in the winter beauty abounds around each corner.  It would be a great place to practice photography or get inspired about your own garden space.  Through December the visitor center is hosting a miniature village and model railroad exhibit which is great for children.
