Foss Waterway Seaport Museum and Winterfest - This Weekend!

Last week, we took advantage of the extra time off from school and checked out the new Foss Waterway Seaport Museum (formerly the Working Waterfront Museum) on Dock Street. We had a great time at the latest addition to Tacoma's museum lineup, making wooden boats and checking out the science-y "Finding Your Way" exhibit on loan from the Exploratorium.

I'd never really move to Tukwila. Not with days like yesterday just a short drive down the hill. Spring has finally decided to make a Spring Break appearance, so when Amy called about an adventure yesterday, I thought of Old Town Park, The Spar, and the Waterfront. This is one of my all-time favorite Good Tacoma Days, and all you need to enjoy it is a little warmth and sunlight.

I hadn't been to Garfield park in a few years, when a call from Pierson of Walk the Waterfront reminded me of its existence. This is kind of a hidden park, tucked into a pocket behind Annie Wright School (which cooperatively maintains it, and uses it for their athletics program) and leading nearly all the way down to the water. It's in a truly gorgeous spot in the middle of one of the most beautiful neighborhoods on Puget Sound.
