Day 1 – I took Eve out with me for the first 3 days to run the first couple of miles with me. It was a great to have that back with her (I used to run with her ALL of the time until she started getting arthritis).

Day 3 – Riverview Amusement Park ruins

Day 3 – Riverview Amusement Park ruins
I ran along the river between Addison and Belmont, and noticed a “Bike Park” with mini hills for a BMX track. I decided to start running up and down them, until I realized that they were actually the old foundations from the Riverview Amusement Park!

Trying to catch a “groupie” jump pic. Failed.

What the hell are those stairs
“Oh, THOSE are the stairs they are always talking about…no, no we didn’t accidentally go off-course, do them & have to back track.”
