T.T. Minor Playground — Attraction in Seattle

I was surprised it was open until 11:30. It’s awesome once the school is closed. I’ve met a variety of pet owners there, and there is at least that one common bound- our dogs.

Pitts are misunderstood by anyone who's never known one, so to avoid any kind of trouble, this is a safe and somewhat private area to enjoy time with your dog. Can't speak for the school itself, but its nice that they share their field with...
