Puget Sound and Islands > Seattle-Tacoma Area

Went for a short spin at the arboretum to check out the rhododendrons. Not a lot of rhody blooms yet, but there were great skunk cabbage, cherry blossoms, and even some trillium!

Theres also a very cool art installation on Azalea Way consisting of many glass planes that represent cedar plant cells. I haven't been to the arboretum in a while and this art installation is new to me and very cool.

We hiked Azalea Way in a loop, pausing under the art and enjoyed a quiet, gray day before heading home to chill for the rest of the weekend.
