On Saturday Nathan and I drove to nearby Issaquah for their annual Salmon Days festival. There is a hatchery on the creek, and this weekend celebrates their return swim upstream. Is there anything cooler, more Northwestern and 'Fall Fun' than that?! I love a good festival. We watched a parade, perused the artisan booths and food vendors, downed some delicious gyros and funnel cake, saw some diving dogs and saluted the returning fish. It was a crisp, beautiful Autumn day.

I love Nathan, and I love Fall, and I am loving the Northwest more than ever these days.
Did you do anything fun this weekend?
