The cool, crispness of autumn is certainly in the air this week on Bainbridge Island! Your friends at “Loving Island Life” have heard that there is a pretty good storm blowing in this weekend! For those of you who don’t mind a little rain and wind, the annual Pumpkin Walk is this weekend at Bainbridge Gardens. It is a wonderful island tradition, and it’s perfect for a fall family outing. For those of you who prefer to stay dry, but still want to get out with friends this weekend, we have a couple of not to be missed indoor activities for you. Stay safe, and enjoy the season!

From Gillian Welch, Dave Carter / Tracy Grammer, to Buddy Holly, Warren Zevon and Fleetwood Mac. They like to put their spin on their favorite songs with an ear to close, tight harmony. And fun!
