Welcome to Golden Gardens. This is a beach in Ballard off of 85th street. Bryan, Kevin, DeBorba and myself woke up at 8:00 a.m. to meet Charlie and Nathan over at Charlie's place by 9:00, which then we would leave for the beach, because a Saturday with 80 degree weather equals a crowded beach. But, Charlie did not have confidence on a punctual arrival by the 3 of us, so we showed up at 9:00 a.m. when he was still asleep, hitting his snooze on the alarm thinking we would be late. Today was a male bonding day, or pick on DeBorba, as you will see from these pictures:
