The bike took me to Albany’s Bryant Park Wednesday. The park remains closed to vehicles because of the recent flooding, but people can get around the gates on foot or on two wheels.
Back on the Albany riverfront, the news is about the same: High water in the parks, but no problems.
The trouble with riding a bicycle around western Oregon in December is the weather.
This scene looks familiar, doesn’t it? That’s because along Cox Creek in Albany, trees falling down and smashing the chain link fence of Talking Water Gardens is a regular thing.
Riding my bike along the Albany riverfront, I’m on the Dave Clark Path several times a week. And lately I’ve noticed that west of the Wheelhouse Building a new gap in the path has opened up.
How about taking down that old sign?
Now and then I wonder if anything will ever be done with the long-closed Albany restaurant property at 3225 Santiam Hwy. S.E., less than a block from Interstate 5.
