Ever heard that being on a trail a day can keep the doctor away? No? Me either...but I think it's worth a shot! I'm from Springfield, Missouri and one thing I love about this city is the abundance of Greenway trails running throughout it. The amazing people working at Ozark Greenways are constantly working to maintain and improve the trail system here.
Yesterday, as I rode my bike down a trail that is literally less than half a mile from my house, I wondered why I had never been to it before. The trail was flanked by a creek which helped to name the trail - South Creek Greenway. The scenery alone was enough to make a person travel there: creeks, beautiful willow trees, grassy fields, and quiet woods. After my ride I decided that my goal for this biking season is to travel to each trail within my city and ride them. I'll try to share a photo of a special spot I find on each trail and share it with you all. Want to take on this challenge with me? Share a photo of your favorite place to get outside and be active!

Here is my favorite spot from the South Creek Greenway trail - unfortunately it is still too cold for the trees to be budding here, but the creek was so peaceful at this spot, which is why I chose to stop here for a drink. On my way back through the trail some little kiddos were playing here and throwing rocks, what an awesome adventure spot for kids!
Welcome to the "blogosphere" dear! I look forward to your journey! Hopefully I can catch a few with you! I actually have been to several of these trails around town with friends and there are some REALLY cool ones around! Can't wait to see your take on them! I am sure Delilah will enjoy the experience as well, I may just have to hitch up Baby Avi and we can make an adventure out of this!
