Let's go back to the rose garden in Washington Park. It should be in full flower in the middle of June. And maybe we can catch a glimpse of the new reservoir. Which is still not open to the public, but in full view.
10am - meet in the plaza between the gift shop and restrooms, at the SW corner of the garden
noon - meet again nearby, wherever we can find space for an optional throw-down
The free park shuttle loops around the park, with stops at both the Rose Garden and the zoo MAX station. There's also a Trimet bus, the 63, that comes to the Rose Garden from downtown. If you're willing to hike up the hill from Burnside, the 20 stops at the bottom of the carriage drive, and the 15 a couple blocks away.
For people driving, parking can get tight. There's a small lot at the Rose Garden, but it fills up quickly. Overflow parking is down SW Sherwood, which might lead to a hike back up to the garden. It might be best to park at the zoo and take the shuttle.
