Bainbridge Island Birthday and My Newf!

bainbridge island newfoundlandMy hubby grew up on Bainbridge Island so we are there quite often visiting lots of relatives.  We went over for a family party this weekend and I decided to bring one of my Newfies, David.  David had a blast swimming in the Sound and even got to see some Sea Otters and I think a sea lion (any experts on what it is?).  Here are some shots from the waterfront cabin....

There were five family dogs that showed up for the party - I guess we like dogs.....  That is a Golden Retriever and a Springer Spaniel next to David.  They all had a great time on the beach.

Then we saw a family of Sea Otters on another floating dock...

Bainbridge Island is a great place to live!  We have often considered moving over there - I know it would be a great place to raise my kids.  I just love Seattle so much that I would have too much trouble leaving it behind and I need more flexibility in commute than the ferry would allow if I am to continue to sell Seattle real estate!  Bainbridge Island is an ideal place to live if you work downtown, though, and have a regular schedule.  Talk about living green!    If you are right in Winslow, you can walk to the ferry and walk to work - perfection!
