Dog Days of Summer at Lake Padden

Visited the DDoS at Padden off-leash, but by the time I arrived ( 1:20 PM ) most of the exhibitors were packin-it-in. The event was spared the forecast rain but it was wicked-windy with white-caps on the lake's west end.

Adequate parking seemed to be the biggy. So much so that the fenced in off-leash area was used for parking. Hmmm ! Guess I'm just a Blaine hayseed, but I found that most odd.
