Seattle, Day 10
Lake Washington, near Seward Park, looking down from the picnic table where we had our BBQ.
Back to Seattle for the last few days of our trip. Staying with my best friend and her husband, and we had the most amazing day yesterday. Brunch. A walk in the arboretum. Nice warm weather and a BBQ at the lake. Heaven.
Missing Seattle: The Arboretum
My favorite way to escape the concrete of the city...
Seattle's arboretum is so beautiful in every season, and big enough to get a decent workout in if you loop trails together. It's like leaving the city entirely it's so thick and lush, and it smells so good.
I came here all the time with my first dog, Shaye, a great Dane/greyhound mix. And then with Dexter, my brother's boxer, when I lived here a few years ago. Sometimes I'd be babysitting my BFFs miniature schnauzer--the fabulous Miss Lucy--and she'd come along. She'd always get muddy and I'd have to give her a bath in the sink.
Mid-day mid-week the arboretum is all but deserted. Absolutely love it here.
