Once, I was at the park and kicked a ball into the Water Buffalo exhibit at the zoo. So we bought a ticket and jumped the fence. We scattered, trying to find the ball. I hear a yell and turn around. My friend is running over the hill towards me holding the ball high. Following him are some buffalo. We made it out alive.

I didn’t even know there was a logging exhibit in the park, complete with creepy old rusted logging equipment and restored camp cars, until the other day. It’s great to be in the city but feel like you’re up in the mountains.

It’s hard to believe that the country’s second largest city park, after Central Park in NYC, is in Tacoma, WA! Its a wonderful place. Forest, Beach, Zoo, Pond, Grass, Rose Garden, etc. etc.

I am lucky enough to live next to Point Defiance and I Love this peaceful park.
