Today was another chance to check out a local Seattle Park so I met up with Bloated Chipmunk and we went to Carkeek. All I can say is that the Olmstead brothers did an awesome job designing parks around Seattle up.gif up.gif Full set of pics here. We walked around for about an hour and a half with about 1/3 of that time chillin at the beach people, train and water watching and some play time in the sand for BC. It was a fun time with some good company. biggrin.gif

Carkeek is a special place. I love that bridge over the tracks. Definite a good palce to go for a sunset!!
