Hiram M. Chittenden Locks

We had a picnic at the Ballard locks today and discovered how cool they are. The grassy area was covered in goose poo so that part wasn't so cool...and I was worried Brandt was going to strain his wrist running around signing "poo" at every little landmine he saw.

Looking at the water was a big hit and the fish ladder was interesting, even though there were no salmon swimming upstream. I think the salmon start up next month so we'll be back.
