First at The Island

For four years we've driven past the bridge, heard about the pumpkin patch traffic jams, sent regrets for its Thursday night farm concerts, but until today had never set foot on Sauvie Island. Ta-da, we made it! Though its nothing like it, Sauvie is the closest thing to Ocracoke Island I've seen... maybe just because it's an island.

It was a foggy morning

at the beach.

But then it broke.

We went on a 15-minute 'hike,' picked blackberries and saw a neat plant.

We went to the Farm. Had some flame-roasted corn, dipped in a crock pot of melted butter...


Met the farm dog.

Looked at flowers, thought about U-Picking... didn't.
We'll have to come back for a pumpkin, wagon ride, and a honey dripper (Ours never made it into the bag).
