Bridge Structure

This is the heavy-duty (I hope) bridge structure that supports the road across Dry Canyon.  I thought it was practical, yet pretty.  Near here is a little picnic spot in the cedar trees with a table and drinking fountain, even a low fountain for the dogs.  They seem to have thought of everything.

A Highway Spans The Canyon

When I venture far enough north in Dry Canyon, I go under the highway.  There's a spot closer to home where there's a short, wide tunnel to go under another street.  Along the route are skate parks, dog parks and other green areas.  One day I'll have to venture even further to see what else I can discover.

Big Sky

This shows one of the wider parts of the southern portion of Dry Canyon where I enjoy walking each morning.  A couple weeks ago I encountered this amazing sky.  That's enough to get me out to exercise -- most mornings.

Grasses Galore

About four blocks from our house (as the crow flies) is Dry Canyon which is a very nice place for my morning walk.  The locals say it started many years ago with two baseball fields, tehn a couple of years ago it was expanded to add more than 10 miles of paved trail.  I've been on only half of it but from where I start I can go either north or south so I get some variety.  There's a lot more trail to the north, however.  

The walls are volcanic rock, sometimes 20' high, with some pine and juniper trees and lots of grass as shown here.  I think it's a great alternative to walking on the streets.
