Finch Arboretum

If you live in Spokane and haven't visited Finch Arboretum, turn off the computer and go right now! And if you're from out of town, go next time you visit! (we must take our families next time they're in town). The arboretum is sandwiched in an unlikely place between I-90 and the Sunset Highway, yet once you're there you completely forget about the cars zooming near by. Fall is the best time of year to visit, with the trees changing color and so much variety to look at. I've taken the kids a couple of times and this weekend we took Patrick there for his first visit. 

The kids love climbing rocks, crossing the bridges, looking at trees and running. Ronan loves to ask what each tree is, I love that curious mind (and luckily for me, there are placards at each tree!). I took just a few photos this time around, we'll have to go back soon to catch more fall colors - everything is still so green. What a unique fall we're having!


Much to the delight of our kids, there are tables and benches tucked in everywhere. Ais was so proud to have found this one

this is all I get these days




my antics got a smile, but we lost daddy's head :)
