Westside Regional Trail Walk

An exploratory walk of the Westside Regional Trail. I was surprise to find that this trail was like a rollercoaster with climbing over several ridges and one Mt. Williams. All that other West side regional trails are flat. Mt. Williams is an area still under development but holds nice potential for a nature area with trails. I started may walks at Murry Scholls Town Center and went to trails end at SW Blanton Street.

By the numbers: About 9.3 miles with 1200 ft. total elevation gain and on the trail for 4 hours.

Washington Park Walk

This time Lori, Sylvia and I stayed closed to home and did a short walk in Washington Park. We wanted to see the Rose Garden Blooming and what had been done with the Reservoirs. I also wanted to Sylvia some spot she had not seen before and to see what was new. Afterward we went to Canyon Grill for lunch.
