New Wrinkle in the M-F Routine

Ran up Garzas Canyon Trail today as a new wrinkle in the Monday to Friday routine. It is about at the end of the outward bound trail and goes up on a rough, rocky, and rooted trail. It is doable at this time of year 'cause it is light enough to see the ankle biters. I run that trail from time to time during daylight runs, but have not been up there in a while. There is a new dedicated bench there looking back north toward the house and a nice panoramic view of the other side of the river valley...a side I do not usually see. Those dedication benches are a nice touch and useful mostly for the hikers in the park. A couple weeks ago I ran across one in particular I was looking for...the one dedicated to Mel and Elizabeth Grimes. A tragic local story of a couple that was pretty involved in the running community. That story can be discussed another day...it was a nice memorial though.
Felt great to add a new wrinkle to a regular route...and good sights...
