Life as a Returning Student

Since I returned to school to pursue a degree in Environmental Science, I have been living like a student again. Even working full time during the day, tuition does not grow on trees, so I reduced expendatures as much as possible. I rented a tiny hovel in the city. I reasoned that I would hardly be there anyway, better to focus more on a good location and less on amenities. So I live in a shoe box, but this is my back yard...

Carkeek Park

These are the train tracks at Carkeek Park.

Located in northwest Seattle, this popular park offers extraordinary views of Puget Sound and the Olympic Mountains.

Years of hard work by neighbors and volunteers have brought salmon back to Pipers Creek in Carkeek Park.
