Well it’s been a rough year weather wise for our walks. Hopefully September will be a change. For September we’ll be replicating a walk we did summer of 2019. We’ll basically head west towards Oak Park Avenue. Once there we’ll head straight south towards Oak Park. We likely take a slight detour at Rutherford Sayre Park. CPD built a nice nature area on the south side of the tracks, it should make for some nice September viewing/birding. Once in Oak Park we’ll walk past several Frank Lloyd Wright buildings. We’ll also make the required stop in downtown Oak Park for some “refreshment”. After we’re done we’ll walk back to Austin to catch the 91 bus back to JP though if we’re still feeling ambitious an exploratory walk through Columbus Park might be a good call. As usual we’ll meet at Weston’s for a 9:30 departure. Total distance will be around 8 miles.
