There are so many people that just don't have the room, the sun, or the time for a garden.

Look at all those tomatoes for canning!

I had never heard of that park either, but haven't done that much camping in Washington State parks.. but how neat to have that nice green grass there. I bet you did need a break from all that gardening and canning! Alot of work for sure. Sometimes a few days away rejuvenates us so we are much more ready to work when we get home! I hope it did the same for you. Funny.. when I'm away somewhere, I seem to find the time to take walks, but when I'm home, I don't find the time and really don't feel like walking around the same old neighborhood. Being away, seeing new sights... really helps us to feel like walking I think. Enjoy your Sunday!
