Magnuson Park is a 350 acres park on Sand Point at Pontiac Bay, Lake Washington, in the Sand Point neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. The park is the second largest in Seattle, after 534 acres Discovery Park in Magnolia.
Established in 1900 (military use 1922-1975)
On Tuesday March 28th our daughter Katie and I had a stroll in the park.
Katie and Andrew live on the edge of Magnuson Park while Andrew is attending the University of Washington. He is working very hard on an Aeronautical Engineering degree.
We had an umbrella in hand on this day that sprinkled on us off and on.

I think this is a white breasted nuthatch.
Sun steps…
I think this is a ring necked duck.
Katie and I are headed for another walk at Magnuson tomorrow and this time we’re hoping for a sunshiny day.
Linking up to ABC Wednesday created by Mrs. Nesbitt and administered by Roger and his mighty team!

Oh I do hope it’s sunny for you as this looks absolutely stunning, even in the rain.

Pretty walk in the rain! Hope you get that sunny day too!
Even on a gray day there seems to be a splash or two of colour!
Beautiful, and thanks! I’ve seen those sun steps before in a photograph and wondered where they were in the Pacific Northwest!
How I would like to take that walk to… seems a gorgeous place no matter what weather it is
Have a nice ABC-day / -week

Hi Ellen, what lovely pictures despite the drizzly rain, I always think of the film ‘Sleepless in Seattle’ and it rained and rained then, but it must have some dry times, so pretty!
Good to spend time with your daughter,
Best wishes,
