Quiet beauty of Historic Fairhaven

<< Back to archives | Friday, October 3, 2008

A different beauty emerges in our historic district during the fall rainy season as is shown with this view on Harris Avenue.  A little noticed abstract metal sculpture at A Lot of Flowers at 11th Street comes to attention on these cloudy days with the light misty rain.  The greens come out more.  The colors of the brick buildings take on a richer hue.  We who live in the Pacific Northwest like it.  I come from the Midwest - Wisconsin - and grew up with the hard rains that were not pleasant.  The NW rain to me is a soft, gentle one that allows one to be outside, walking or doing things without ever really getting too wet.  And with such pastoral thoughts, we invite you to enjoy Fairhaven on these quiet fall days.  The shops and restaurants are havens of dry warmth.  It all works together.
