Madison Wisconsin features 5 good sized lakes, excellent bike paths, an arboretum managed by the university of Wisconsin, botanical gardens, ...and it is the state Capitol.
This is wingra creek, about 400 feet from lur apartment. I connects two of the lakes. You can just make out the bke path beside it. The bridge lets you onto the road to the arboretum

You are one busy. civic minded woman - beautiful park.
thanks Pat---some think I am crazy to work that hard and not get paid--- and I think sometimes community service has gotten a bad rap because it is used as punishment. But if I need help with a big project there are always people who show up. this summer I want to restain the playset and picnic tables--will call a few and bring some food and it will be fun!
