Ho hum. Its on a golf course. Its great if you like to run in the mornings or at lunch. Today, its just below all the major business parks.

Having trails like this is one of the best parts about living here. This ride was 18 miles long and crossed traffic maybe 5 or 6 times. This last picture shows a completed renewal project. It shows what used to be a huge gravel pit owned by a aggregate company. Now its a terrific park for biking and walking along the river.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6796118081641490073-3697288626325220367?l=fifteenhundredmiles.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>troutfisherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10564889623098506604noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6796118081641490073.post-21996330564407754662007-09-25T20:15:00.000-07:002008-12-09T21:50:18.684-08:00Corn Maze<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_a_RfoEwYlMA/RvnQQubL1mI/AAAAAAAAAAM/lCwg9x88qP0/s1600-h/misc+005.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_a_RfoEwYlMA/RvnQQubL1mI/AAAAAAAAAAM/lCwg9x88qP0/s320/misc+005.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5114347837614446178" border="0" /></a>The church sponsers a day at the arboretum.
