| Harmody Park is a 21-acre City park is part of the Treadway Creek Trail which was created after residents opposed a local land fill operator's attempt to purchase the land to create yet another land fill site in the late 1990s. The protest was successful and the City eventually purchased the land. Partnering with the Western Creek Conservancy, they worked to create 2/3rd mile connector trail to the Towpath Trail which was completed in 2007. |

| I found this amazing garden park at the end of Bern Ave. It featured various plants with species info, poems, sitting benches, and a wishing well. This random find is why I love doing these runs. |
