This house is right at the tip of Agate Passage. About 10 years ago, we knew the people who lived in the caretaker's cottage and they would invite us down to the beach for BBQs in the little hut you see on the right. It doesn't look like much from this picture, but it actually has a really cool brick cooking area, and the beach is fabulous!
The picture below is of the house at Bloedel Reserve. If you ever visit us on Bainbridge, we'll be sure to take you there! It's a fabulous nature preserve, and only a mile from my house.
We couldn't figure out what the heavy machinery on this barge is for. It's anchored right ouside the mouth of Port Madison Bay. Any guesses?
We skirted past the mouth of Port Madison Bay, since we already explored it last month. The house below is Gretchen's "Tree House", a house they've been considering buying. She calls it the Tree House because of the huge tree growing outside the front windows. She says when you're standing at the window looking out, all you can see is the middle of the tree and it feels like you're really in a tree house.
This cute little yellow farmhouse is right next door to the Tree House. I love it! It's been for rent several times in the past few years. Hmmm...maybe if Gretchen buys the Tree House...
On the other side of the Tree House is the entrance to the Point Monroe Lagoon, a very unique place on Bainbridge. It has the feel of a small beach town, all the houses lined up right on the water. Point Monroe is a sandbar and some of the house have double waterfronts, one on the lagoon side, and one on the Puget Sound side. The lagoon is pretty shallow and would be such a fun place for kids to play in the summer! 
The beach at Fay Bainbridge was so peaceful. We sat out in our kayaks for quite a while, relaxing in the calm water, wishing we didn't have to go back!
