One last hurrah!

We woke up to a beautiful blue sky day and decided to take full advantage of it as it might be the last one until February! We packed up the kids, some stuff and our bikes and trailer and headed out to "boy scout beach", a really nice beach in the vicinity of the local boy scout camp.

The kids had a great time playing in the water and digging holes.





Madelyn found the container of cream cheese in the bag and decided to help herself.

On the way out we drove past the Jensen-Olsen Arboretum (run by CBJ) and decided to check it out on the way back. Boy are we glad we did! It was B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L! If you haven't been there, you should go check it out.
I wandered through the garden and not much was left, but there were a few cabbages...and they were big!

I had no idea it was possible to grow artichokes in Juneau. But here's the proof!
