Treks and Adventures
It was forecast to be a wet day so we decided to stay closer to home and do a rainy day walk of Arrowhead Creek Park and Graham Oaks Nature Park. This time out was with Merlyn and Lori. Lori had not been to Arrowhead Creek Park so we head to it first. Form there we headed back Graham Oaks and and did short out and back there. Part way through our walk there the rain got worst so we decided to call it a day and head for lunch. Lunch was once again at the Backstop Ban & Grill in Canby.
We wanted to do a get together after the holidays but weather and injuries prevented us from doing a walk or a hike so we did a little scouting with lunch. Lori, Jeanette and I first headed down to Wilsonville to do a quick check of Memorial Park. The Park offers some trails and could work into a longer hike with connecting over to Boones Ferry Park. Next we were close to where Jeanette planted a tree and placed a remembrance marker for her decease husband and wanted to show use where it was. The area had changed a lot so it took us a while to track down the spot. From here we are off for one of Lori’s favorites a car ferry ride across the Willamette River. This lead us to the Molalla River State Park close by the ferry landing. After a quick drive through the park and seeing it would not work out for future outings it was time for lunch at the Backstop Bar & Grill in Canby. So a day low on walking in the rain but high on poking our noises into places and having a good social time.
