Bridle Trails State Park

Emily and her family have really landed on their feet with their migration to Seattle or, more specifically, Kirkland. The district has some lovely amenities such as the nearby Bridle Trails State Park, which has a variety of trails running through a beautiful forest setting. See: http://alltrails.com/trail/us/washington/bridle-trails-state-park. Yesterday Emily, Dot and I walked around one of the major trails for a couple of hours and saw some great scenery. The images selected here portray some of the visual splendour of this setting.






 A selfie!


 A self-bonzaied tree and local wildflowers


Strawberries that aren't strawberries at all! This local berry looks like the real thing, but tastes different and is sometimes yellow. We tried a few as we walked along.


 Another picture of me and also Emily.



Elderberries were also growing wild, and possibly food for this little fellow who crossed our path -  a millipede.
