Arboretum



One of our favorite places to go on walks with Oliver is the Arboretum (officially called the "Washington Park Arboretum"). It's only a couple miles from our house and although it's technically part of the University of Washington, it feels like a really nice city park.

It's large enough that you feel like you're not in the city at all, but small enough that you can see the whole park in a couple hours. It's great year-round but really shines in the spring when most of the azaleas and rhododendrons bloom, which is why we decided to bring our camera along yesterday.

It also happened to be opening day for the boating season, which explains some of the pictures you'll see in the album.

Some great blossomy photos in your album! Since the Arboretum is part of UW Botanic Gardens, we linked to this on UWBG's page on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/UWBotanicGardens. Thanks for sharing!
