Treks and Adventures
The forecast was for a rainy day so we decide to stay close to home and do the Vancouver Waterfront walk. This walk hold our interest as there is something always changing. This time it was check on the progress of Terminal One new pier being build. It is also a downtown walk you can do and feel safe. We did an easy four miles and went to Say Ciao! for lunch.
Lori put together another Tom Walk, this time over in Vancouver, WA. Lori, Marilyn, Barbara, Wendy, Tom and I met at the Pearson Air Museum at Fort Vancouver. From there we preceded on our normal route of going pass Fort Vancouver, over the Confluence Bridge, under the I5 bridge to walk along the Vancouver Waterfront Trail. At the end of the is a group of picnic tables and we stopped there for a bit to eat. After our stop we headed to to Esther Short Park and over the Evergreen St. Bridge back to Fort Vancouver. Our last bit was to walk along Officers Row and back to our cars. This was about a 4.5 mile walk.
It had been a while since I have done the Fort Vancouver to Vancouver Waterfront Park walk. I was curious what changes had taken place since the last time I visited.
I needed to get out for a little exercise before a rain front was to arrive and I had not visited the Vancouver Waterfront in several months so that was the place to go. I have walked this area a number of times over several years now and it has been interesting to see that changes that have occurred. The Vancouver Waterfront Park area has gone through quit a transition and this time I found several new buildings under construction. My route was just over 6 miles and it took me a little over two hours to do.
