On Tuesday, Bob and I went back to the Thermal Rail Trail with Cooper to walk a different section of it. The prior Friday, I had driven to the trail to take advantage of the lengthy trail to do a 16 mile run. Tuesday, we walked a little over a 1.5 mile section (and then back) of the trail that parallels Main Street in Forest City. It was a great day for a walk, and we saw others, mostly bikers, also using the trail.






Today, we picked another item off of the Things to Do brochure that we picked up at the Visitor’s Center in Shelby and headed towards Hanna Park in Shelby to check out their nature trail with Cooper. It was a lovely 60+ degrees but mostly overcast. The park was super impressive — large with 6 soccer fields, a playground, and pristine.
