Take advantage of the coming break in weather to get out and enjoy one of this community’s most precious assets … Washington Park. Take 12th Street/Oakes west past the ferry terminal and hook up with the loop road that leads to this vantage point above Burrows Bay. Pedestrians only before 10 a.m.

Bluff stroll

This visitor to the city’s Washington Park is silouetted against the afternoon sun as he returns to his car at the viewpoint above Burrows Island. The park was busy, likely populated by recreationists trying to make the most of remaining summer days.
