We pulled in a magnificent entrance off 15th Avenue. There were families everywhere barbecuing. There are two parking lots. We were instructed to drive to the back lot.\n\nAs we pulled up, I was overwhelmed by the pond/lake with an island in the middle. Waterfowl swam serenely and it was not crowded at all, making it easy to snap our pictures to our hearts' content. \n\nIt is a great place to a go for a walk! I will be back with my tennis shoes."^^ . "2018-05-02T00:00:00"^^ .
