My mother-in-law, Janet, arrived from the UK last Wednesday for her annual visit. I foresee a few fun day trips in my near future! Today we went to La Conner, had a walk around and had a fabulous lunch. Even the child joined us for the outing (like he had a choice, hehe)!
Janet doing the “wiggle,” because the art statue behind her was called “The Big Red Wiggle.”
La Conner is about 45 minutes from where I live and a very small town. Very artistic. Great culture. Great scenery. The Swinomish Channel runs right along side of the town, so it has some great waterfront views.
Rainbow Bridge:
Neighborhood house in the shape of a boat (in blue), although you can’t really tell from this view.
Artsy stuff:
Loved this frog:
I stepped out in the middle of the road for this one because, hey, why not:
Old, old, old cabin (La Conner was settled in 1867):
A little farmer’s market:
A lovely little tea shop:
And, finally, lunch at La Conner Brewery (we find the best food at breweries):
Tomorrow is the city of Bellevue… with Judy from New York’s own Chocolate Runs Judy!! I can’t wait to meet her!!
