Edgewater Park is great in the summer. Even when the creep in girl's underpants trots around with his walking stick. I have recently followed in my father's footsteps and adopted the practice of lakeside meditation. It is wonderful to sit upon the high bluff and view the waves rolling in succession and watching them break. Also, the avian activities are more visible from high atop the cliff. The seagulls are graceful to watch in flight. Annoying when on the beach. It is nice to walk down to the water's edge on a cold and cloudy day and feel the energy and force. The sounds of wind and water are so soothing that it acts as noise cancelling element and drowns out all thought and reminders of daily living. This is where I come to be one with nature. I moved very close in proximity because of this. When I drive towards downtown on Route 2 at night and look to the left, it seems like Lake Erie is the edge of the world. When one gazes into the water it is pure blackness. Edgewater Park is one of my favorite places in Cleveland.
