Musings on cats, travel, gardens and life
My husband took me out for dinner last weekend to one of our favorite restaurants, Anthony’s, but to a new location (to us,) in Tacoma at Point Defiance.


They don’t take reservations, so you walk in, put your name on the list, then they notify you when your table’s ready. While waiting we discovered a walkway along the water, and it wasn’t long till we got the call.

We enjoyed the good food as always and the views as well, including the arrival of the Vashon Ferry.

I’ve taken ferries across Puget Sound my whole life, but I never get tired of seeing them plying the waters.

Next time, we’ll take the trip across to Vashon Island. If we’re lucky, maybe we’ll see some killer whales.

What a lovely place for dinner. (An old high school friend lives on Vashon and we had the pleasure of going out to visit her a number of years back. The ferry was an added bonus!)
It was a great place for dinner with wonderful views! How fun to have a friend who lives on Vashon!
