Seattle
Parks Tim and I spent a few hours today, ambling around a few of Seattle's many parks. It was cold, blustery and sunny, a good day to be outside. |

We began with a
stop at one of Seattle's newest parks, the tiny Fremont
Peak Park. Good things come in small packages. There were many interesting
details to admire. |
Here's a partial
view from the lookout. Those are the Olympic Mountains, with Ballard in
the foreground. |
Next stop was Taejon
Park with its lovely pagoda. Built on Beacon Hill in 1995, this park
commemorates its relationship with its sister city Taejon in Korea. |
The
paintwork is beautiful. I am looking straight up at the center of the
ceiling. |
Here's
more of the detail and the painting. |
Nearby
is Sturgus Park
with walking paths which circle a sculpture called Equality. |
The
artwork is comprised of 35 small granite houses on a grid set against
a larger bronze house on a hill of grass. |
