Treasure in the City

I am so fortunate to live within walking distance of Nine Mile Creek. It is such a gift to be able to walk along the creek with my dog. Between the trees, wildlife, and bubbling music of the creek, it is truly an oasis of quiet calm. I love the unpaved trail, so much easier on the knees and it contributes to feeling even closer to nature vs a typical city park. A visit to Nine Mile with my dog always leaves me feeling better than when I arrived. I hope that as much nature can be preserved as possible and hope the unpaved portions remain that way. I hope it remains a walk only trail to preserve the calm and tranquility of the trail. There are many city parks but Nine Mile is unique and beautiful, I hope our community can continue to enjoy it for many years to come.
