Sara's full firsthand review

A rather large yet cozy park smacked in the middle of the energy corridor. There are various entrances to reach this park; & yet each entrance happens to guide you through a unique path. I love the large stretched out corridors here. These are tunnels that are full of trees that stretch so far out into various pathways and bridges. Great for those that are joggers or bicyclists. I find myself mostly walking here and yet I can't seem to finish the trail. It's easy to get lost here as well. Lol. Unless you spot a map or something. As mentioned, the trails are long and unwinding. I had always known about this park yet its entrances were mysterious, and easily missed. Frequently visiting and being near the beltway, I was able to spot one of the main entrances and that was it. I've been a frequent stroller here for the past 2 years. This park seems to have been here forever; I hope it stays & that it continues to preserve itself within the midst of the concrete jungle. There are vast neighborhoods tucked within the corners of some of the pathways. One of the neighbors decorated a bench and left a mini library outside so walkers can grab books & leave a book as well. It's these little things that are precious & that have made this park ever so charming. I love visiting in Autumn and Spring in particular. Last year I spotted a field of yellow flowers. Just nothing but pure yellow gold all around, as if the sun had dipped its beams into the earth. Support local parks, walk, bike or jog. Or bring your fluffy best friend. Just move a bit and you'll be good! Toodles!
