Sprayground and Wading Pools, Updated for 2010!

I know it's super late, but here's the Sprayground/Wading Pool map all updated for 2010.

The Wright Park sprayground is a work in progress, and Franklin's update should take place this year. Hopefully, a new sprayground will open there next fall and there won't be any gap between wading pool removal and sprayground installation as there was at Wright.

You may call it pandering, but this is well worth meandering: Starting Wednesday this neighborhood supermarket tempts Tacoma chocolate lovers for five blissful days, but Sunday Oct. 11 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., it’s downright cocoa loco!

Jefferson Park (189 Good Days in Tacoma)

The new sprayground at Jefferson Park is crazy-fun. The fact that the temperature didn't really get up above 75 degrees yesterday, did not deter my 6 year old from spending a solid two hours in the chilly water, laughing, giggling and jumping all the while. I was a little sad to see the wading pool go, but no longer! Anything that can burn that much kid energy for that long without a parent having to hover and worry is awesome in my book.

Puget Creek

Yesterday Tacoma was finally visited by the sun on a weekend. We took full advantage and headed over to Puget Park with some friends for a long hike down to Ruston Way and the waterfront.

Why the butterfly costume? "Because butterflies are part of nature."

The trail starts at the edge of the woods, behind and to the right of the playground.
