When we went to Gas works Park we walked up Kite hill and discovered a sun dial. It had all the zodiac signs as well as numbers out of different colored tiles etc. Kaitlyn thought it was the best part of the park. The rose was at the front of the sun dial. When you got to the top of the hill you could see Seattle in the background to one side with kites flying in the air. Behind the other way was the gas pipes and park. It was a cool suprise at the top of the hill.
Formed out of concrete and delineated with rocks, shells, glass, bronze and many other materials the sundial tells time by using the body of the visitor as stylus. The viewer’s shadow tells the time of day and the season.
