Stevenson Grandparents Visit






My parents were in town last weekend for a quick visit. It seems to have become a tradition for them to visit in October, (which is fine with us!) and we all enjoy the Pumpkin Prowl at the Woodland Park Zoo. This was our fourth year, and I think it's fair to say a fun time was had by all.

My folks also pointed out that even though they've visited Seattle dozens of times, they'd never ridden one of the numerous ferries that criss-cross the Sound. Since we were fortunate to have glorious weather for the duration of their stay, we decided to head over to Bainbridge Island. The fall colors were in full swing, we walked the beach at Fay Bainbridge State Park, then headed to the other end of the island to walk in the woods at Fort Ward State Park. We had lunch at a great little spot called the Treehouse Cafe, and made it back to Seattle in time for the Prowl. It was a great visit!
