I love all their peeling bark and shiny inner wood.<br /><br />There are some fabulous Madrone up on Cap Sante in Anacortes - with a view of Mt. Baker beyond - it makes a chance to get some amazing photos - I took some when the Madrone was in bloom with Mt. Baker in the shots - amazing.JoAnn ( Scene Through My Eyes)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12621061028973446378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-75776914633402802322014-08-09T07:19:35.580-07:002014-08-09T07:19:35.580-07:00Great photo op in the truck!

You both look so cute in your hats! :)<br /><br />I've never seen or heard of Arbutus trees before; they're so unusual! Wow! The curling bark is lovely, and the curvy, gnarled limbs are fascinating. It sounds like you're getting some goodies from your garden now. We have tomatoes, too, but they're not ripe enough to eat yet. Hopefully soon!<br /><br />Have a lovely weekend. :)<br /><br />Hugs,<br /><br />Denise at Forest ManorDenisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01235440820949449634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-38904271.post-35036108271516041422014-08-08T09:52:44.253-07:002014-08-08T09:52:44.253-07:00Yes...I love your new ride!

It was just his old truck that he called a puddle jumper. Love that picture, and I think the photos in the whole post are so restful.<br /><br />And yes... Let's NOT rush fall.
