I haven't been here for years, but the grounds are absolutely beautiful, and it's a great place for birdwatching. My brother and I used to go walk around during the peak migration times.

I try to take my dog there nightly, the hilly side has a great view from the top, alot of dog owners go up there around 6:30 pm to socialize with the dogs. I've seen people having a little picnic there also.

I am fortunate enough to live near the park. I speed walk through the park every morning and often visit the park with camera in hand. Also attend Lilac Sunday's and other events in the park. It is just Beautiful and a wonderful way to relax and walk/run off stress!
