Walking Group 23 May

23 May walk Trout Lake
On a brilliantly sunny day, six of us did this shortish walk, including newcomer Susan, group regular, Linda, and the four who did last week's walk: Deborah, Maria, Marilyn and Ken.
Again we departed on foot, southbound on Commercial, then going east on Grant to Salisbury and down Salisbury to Gravely, passing Linda's former home on the way. With Marilyn as our guide we took Gravely east to Victoria Dr, then went straight south on Victoria, admiring Figaro's nursery on the way. At E13th we turned left, then right into the first alley (behind Boat Day Care), passed a cute little tree house at the end of the block, and entered the park. We circled Trout Lake once, detouring to the lake edge on boardwalks and stopping on a sandy beach to take photos and admire the view. The Trout Lake Farmers' Market was in full swing, and the group poked about there sampling almond nougat and generally admiring wares. Maria left us at this point. The rest walked out to Clark Park on Commercial then north to Commercial Station and the #20 bus. A short but pleasant walk that suited the mood of the day and wrapped up about 12:30.
