GeeCee's Not-Entirely-Original Miscellany

In the seven years I've lived in this area, it wasn't until a couple of months ago that I realized there was a park with several miles of trail literally across the street. (In my defense, it's not really marked as such and the trail descends below (major, busy) road level pretty much immediately.) I decided today that I was tired of cleaning the kitchen and that it would be a fine time to go check it out, so I dragged nminusone out of the house for a walk. Unfortunately it was around 8 by the time we started, so we didn't get to go all that far; looking at the map, it looks like we got not quite a quarter of the way through before it got dark enough that we turned back. The part we walked is a flat, easy, mostly-gravel path running along Rocky Run. It was a nice little expedition, although I'd have liked it even more if it wasn't getting dark enough that it was hard to see much. The path is well shaded, so I think I'll try again next weekend during the day and try the seven-mile round trip. As a bonus, I got an answer to a question I'd been wondering about earlier today, that being whether or not there were any public pools in the area.
