州立公園似乎沒有再收白天的使用費了

$5 fee at state parks is gone 大西雅圖地區有不少的州立公園, 儘管四月九日才是正式的日期, 但是州立公園似乎沒有再收白天的使用費了. 以前只要是進州立公園的 day use 就要付 $5. 住 Lake Washington 東北方的人, 就可以就近享受 Saint Edward 和 Bridle Trails. 夏季 Issaquah 和 Sammamish 的居民, 可以就近到 Lake Sammamish 游泳消暑. 去 Olallie 的 Twin 瀑布, Wallace Falls 的 Wallace 瀑布也不用再付錢. 健行散步又多了不少的選擇.
