Along a walk

A few days ago, when the city of Lewisville was still allowing people to use their parks, we visited a couple of parks...

On Monday, we visited Lewisville Lake Park. It has a campground where Dwayne and I have stayed in the past, and also has a "Disc Golf Course". We walked around part of it... a couple of the "holes" and/or tee boxes were underwater as the lake is very high right now.

A sign board about the guy who instigated the creation of the course here...



On Tuesday, Carl rode his bicycle to the Toyota of Lewisville Railroad Park, so on Wednesday, we drove the car there and walked around it.

Along the way, we saw some "local residents" who were not observing appropriate social distancing...

There were quite a number of turtles in the water and up along the banks.
We aren't exactly sure why they have closed the parks. The restrooms were closed on the days that we visited earlier in the week. Maybe someone had observed people not keeping appropriate distance. It could be that even Carl and me walking together was not allowed, even though we are in the same household... I don't know. 

There were areas of Lake Park closed due to high water when we were there on Monday, and the playing fields were not being used. We actually have not been back up there to see if it is currently closed or not... but since the Railroad Park had its gates closed and law enforcement officers around when Carl tried going back there on Thursday, we figure that all the city parks have closed. Too bad as we enjoyed being able to get away from the RV service center to walk or bike...
