Sunday Drive to Washington Park Arboretum | Exploring One of Seattle’s Most Scenic Green Spaces

The Washington Park Arboretum is one of Seattle’s most peaceful and scenic destinations, offering miles of walking paths, waterfront views, and curated plant collections just minutes from downtown.

On this Sunday Drive, we explored the Arboretum during the fall season — when colors, reflections, and quiet moments make it especially memorable. This post offers a visual look at the Arboretum and why it continues to be a favorite spot for locals and visitors alike.

One of the best things about having a new puppy in our family has been taking him out on walks to various parks around the area. Yesterday, my husband and I took Scupper, a Flat Coated Retriever, to Washington Arboretum Park.

.Jack Block Park in West Seattle

Today my husband and I stumbled upon a park that we probably have driven by at least 100 times!  Jack Block Park in West Seattle on Harbor Avenue.

It’s industrial meets Mother Nature with the shipping lanes and Elliott Bay.  Lately a pack of Sea Lions have hanging around too.  What a treat!  We also ventured into Harbor Island…more posts will follow.   Click here for more photos.
