Clam Lights are Back!

Every year I look forward to the beautiful holiday lights at Coulon Park on Lake Washington, and we went down Saturday night to see them. The lights were gorgeous as always, but it was especially nice to have the clams running again! For many… Continue Reading “Clam Lights are Back!”
