Good morning! Looks good though, I like the new fishing pier :) Have a great day!
Time to get ready for work.
Well it certainly sounds like it is going to be a busy place with all the activities. I am intrigued by the outdoor living rooms, can't wait to see your photos of those.
That is an amazing bridge!!!
Love your photos, Sandra.
Kiss, kiss

Looking forward to seeing the results!

Bet you never thought you'd be taking $6mil photos, did ya? LOL. Can't wait to see. I wanna play in this park one day.
A River Walkway sounds lovely, "at first blush". I await your verdict on whether what they did, was worth the money spent.
Gentle hugs,

Those bridges are very impressive. I can see many photos coming from this beautiful area.
I am anxious to hear more about this project.
I'm thinking this is money well spent as tourists will appreciate the area and bring money with them. :))
It looks great - but I am no judge of 6 million dollars - wish I had it. I do like the colorful sign too. And the fishing pier. Very nice. sandie
Beautiful pics! That certainly is a lot of money....
nice to see a boardwalk that is not destroyed by a storm right now.
I think it sounds great with such a long riverwalk. I love walking along water. In my town it's only possible here and there to follow the river, there are a lot of interruptions (bridges, factories and other buildings, parkinglots...) They're working on extending the walkways along the river though.
What a beautiful area and trail whoa baby 6 million plus!!
I bet it would be fun to ride on the Tropicana train across the water. That track is pretty narrow.
Hugs Madi and Mom
This park looks like it's got something for everyone. I'd be down there exploring too. What's the charge to ride the train between the two bridges?
What a huge expanse of bridge. Beautiful photos.
These are great pictures!!! That water is just beautiful and the bridge looks long. Hugs
Beautiful! We would be visiting the fishing pier a lot! They spent a few bucks. :)
Looking forward to your next post!
What a great initiative to give people an opportunity to enjoy an area in this way.
it sounds like one heck of a project. looking forward to learning more about it
Now you have got my curiosity going...will be back
I can hardly wait to see your report on the new walk. I certainly hope it will be worth the money.
what a cool place...well...was it worth the $$$$$????
Wow---that is neat!!! Hope you liked it since your tax dollars probably helped pay for it... ha
That would be a neat place to walk though.. I'd love it.
Hugs,
Betsy
Looks good, but I'll await your report. I can't help but wonder if it is worth it, tho. 6 mil is a lot of dough.
Well now I know the price tag for thinking outside the box. As a taxpayer, is your take that funding was well spent? It appears from your later posts that you, Bob and lots of others will enjoy the innovative spaces.
Can't wait to see pix of you and Bob making use of the Skatepark!
