I go here on a sunny day. They have a big, open patio with beautiful views of Lake Union. Unfortunately, I think it is overpriced. But for a quick beer and taco, it's worth it to sit in the sun and take in the view.

You can see this park across the water from the little parks near our home! With old oil refinery equipment still on site, this park is as unique as it is beautiful.

We spend much of our time hiking and camping. If you're interested in hiking or exploring outside of the city (and have a car and the time), let Megan know and I'll give you a couple options! Rattlesnake Ridge is a great (and hugely popular) hike for views without a huge amount of effort-- it is also not too far from the city! Packed on weekends, especially if they are sunny. For other options, just ask. There are endless options off of i90 or Highway 2 to get you going!
