Arbutus Garden has something for everyone, a beautiful garden to photograph, plenty of close- up flowers, Norm (garden owner) says there is always something blooming. Also close by is the Errol Heights nature trail, Errol Creek wetland, and some wonderful 1931 CCC stonework on Johnson Creek all within a short walking distance, and if that isn’t enough he also mentioned that any of the attendees are into wildlife photography, they should come equipped for our diversity of birds. While we're not immersive bird-watchers, some of our feathered neighborhood visitors are memorable. Herons - great blue, green Eagles - bald, bald mated pair, juvenile.

An exciting morning to be sure, and lunch at Pietro’s Pizza, a neighborhood staple since 1957
