Ullr's plus one guest, Marcia, hiked a good two miles of
this Three Rivers Park located on the New Brighton / St Anthony border.
It turned out to be the warmest April 12th since 1931, reaching 88
degrees. For our morning hike it felt wonderful - after the long cold
and snowy winter. The bull frogs were chirping, the gulls were
screeching, geese pairing up, and we spotted a pileated
woodpecker. Another hiker spotted a single loon on the lake, but
too far out to confirm. Much of the hike was on trails in the wooded sections where we had some hills and rougher terrain than the paved pathways. Following the hike seven of us had lunch at Steele & Hops, a local hot spot – opting for inside eating versus the patio. |
