Lyon Creek Park

Today the keeper left us to "bond" and she headed out to the Burke Gilman Trail. She sometimes gets off the trail because none of the cyclists alert the walkers to their coming, and that is one of the rules, and she has come close to near wipe outs.  But today was quieter and she took a detour to a tiny park, Lyons Creek, next to the LFP Clubhouse.  It is a nature preserve which has been restored by the community with native vegetation and the daylighted creek.  A home and stables used to sit on this beautiful lakefront land. Now a dock out to the lake, a little beach, and picnic areas await the unsuspecting wanderer. She said it was very peaceful other than for the jet skiers replaying the hydroplane races of last weekend.
