I know that one of you Puget Sound folks would have some suggestions. hollyqueen and I want to go for a bit of a picnic and nature hike this weekend. Where would you go to get out of the city and enjoy a bit of greenery and wildlife?

In city, closer to you is Marymoor Park (http://www.metrokc.gov/parks/marymoor/) or Cougar Moutnain Park (http://www.metrokc.gov/parks/parks/cougarmountain.html). I am a huge fan of Discovery Park (http://www.seattle.gov/parks/Environment/discovparkindex.htm). I'll second Loree's suggestion of Lincoln Park (http://www.seattle.gov/parks/parkspaces/lincoln.htm).

I second Cougar Mountain - I particularly like the short jaunt from the Newcastle entrance up to the horse pasture/abandoned Nike missle battery/WWII AA site (long since removed, unfortunately :( ) There's a few picinic tables up there for easy seating, and some abandoned mine shafts along the way.
