Gateway Park is a wonderful small park with incredible views of the South Sound. Watch as the sailboats play tag with the wind and the giant shipping container ships whisper their tales of worldwide travel as they disappear over the horizon. The multiple benches and gorgeous green grass are like two natural therapists who recommend having a seat and staying awhile. Located in Old Town and within walking distance to the paved waterfront walkway that spans over 5 miles, peppered with artwork, benches, and piers. The park is almost an acre and a half, and is one of 19 parks that are not maintained by Metro Parks but by The City of Tacoma. It is accessible from half hour before sunrise until half hour after sunset. The fish statue you see (which is covered with newspaper in this photo due to restoration) is 8 feet long and the piece is called "Soul Salmon. It was stolen and assumed to be returned in a short amount of time, but it was not to return to its spawning grounds for years, but made it back in 2016. The salmon is part of a larger project to raise awareness for salmon habitat. You may have noticed other salmon statues around Tacoma and beyond. They were distributed over a 10 year period. This one stands out for being covered in tiles featuring photos of Old Town's history. The tiles were originally grafted on by Artists team Bruce and Shannon Anderson. We are fortunate to have so many wonderful parks in Tacoma. Get out and enjoy our parks♡ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• #Tacoma #253 #GritCity #CityOfDestiny #TacomaWashington #tacomawa #VisitTacoma #exploretacoma #movetotacoma #GetOutAndEnjoyTacoma #GetToKnowTacoma #TacomaParks #GatewayParkTacoma #OldTownTacoma #TacomaArt #TacomaStatues #StayStellarTacoma #StayStellar #LeeHeath @tacomatalks (at Gateway Park Tacoma Wa)

Morning kayaking with my daughter on American Lake. I love kayaking American Lake because it's so big it never gets old. If you launch from the Lakewood end remember you have to have a parking pass that comes with a fishing licennse or you need a Discover Pass. I like the Discover Pass because it covers all the parks and places you launch from.We launched from the park by the Veterans Hospital, and you don't need a pass there, but if you park in the launch parking you have to pay. We launch and then park up top in the actual park parking lot where you don't have to pay.>>> #TacomaTalks #LeeHeath #kayaking #AmericanLake #GetOutside #WashingtonLakes #Washington #LakewoodWashington #wheretokayak (at American Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/BuhYwjugIRW/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=n6kg0d0bioty

Yup, it's parks week for me. Nice wide, paved trail (.9 mile) around the lake, extended outer loop through the forest with long foot bridge, playground, picnic shelters, lots of benches, two massive, fenced, off-leash dog parks, year round restrooms, and a fishing dock. Fishing is only permitted for youth. Free parking. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> #TacomaTalks #LeeHeath (at Wapato Hills Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsRafUfA2y_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=wjwd8cleapuw

This place reminds me of the old sitcom Sandford & Son. The back lot is usually packed to the rafters with a little of everything. Need a toilet? They have like 30 of them! lol The front building is pretty small when compared to the Goodwills we have, but treasures can be found. They also have a lot of special discount days. >>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> #TacomaTalks #LeeHeath #TacomaThriftShops #discountshopping #ThriftShop #recycle #Tacoma #253 #GritCity #CityOfDestiny #TacomaWashington #tacoma_wa #MoveToTacoma #VisitTacoma #ExploreTacoma #GetOutAndEnjoyTacoma #GetToKnowTacoma #SeattlesBackYard (at St. Vincent de Paul Tacoma-Pierce) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsJ5zYgg-bg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=dhqlt7whz60p

Always something interesting going on in T-town. Sunday we were driving by the Grand Staircase and saw this. Of course I had to stop and find out what was going on. Half had signs and the people next to them had tv's that were playing all the horrible ways the animals we eat for food are kept. If you're unfamiar with how our food is raised there are lots of great documentaries. The one that got my daughter and her friend to become vegetarians when they were about 10 is Food Inc. I stayed and chatted for a spell with one of the people on the side who were involved. If you are a Vegan or Vegetarian I learned of an app called Happy Cow. It locates restaurants that have these options. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> #TacomaTalks #LeeHeath #TacomaCares #happycow #vegetarian #vegan #animalcruelty #UWT #SocialStatement #Tacoma #253 #GritCity #CityOfDestiny #TacomaWashington #tacoma_wa #MoveToTacoma #VisitTacoma #ExploreTacoma #GetOutAndEnjoyTacoma #GetToKnowTacoma #StayStellarTacoma #StayStellar (at University of Washington Tacoma) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsHxKItARWq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1t9jtsz6gcdg5

First kayaking of the year, and what a perfect day for it. American Lake has many places to launch watercrafts. We shored up and had a little picnic along our way, and I left another rock. Hope everyone is getting out, enjoying the weather, and all the incredible places our area has to offer~>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> #LeeHeath #TacomaTalks (at American Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsmeREdACAy/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1mi9dhumu3ebr
