Our family spent a breezy fall afternoon wandering in paradise—Howard Finster’s Paradise Garden in Summerville, Georgia. Finster, a self-proclaimed “Man of Visions”, was a folk artist, self-taught and highly dedicated to his calling.

We flew into Seattle and then took a ferry to the quiet island with quaint villages and great outdoor recreational opportunities.
