Itinerary:

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be sick of all the rain from this week, and the forecast for this Thursday is finally dry. *knock on board*

We will enjoy a woodsy, mud-free walk on the beautiful boardwalk. For those that are new to Decatur, there's a path that winds thru the woods - mostly via a boardwalk path that is elevated (up to 40-50 ft, or something like that). 

We'll meet at Medlock Park and make our way to Mason Mill park, taking the path all the way to Druid Hills. Then turn around and make our way back the same way we came. That's it - just the boardwalk this time.

Please note that we will be meeting at Medlock Park, and not Mason Mill. Use the address provided. We'll meet at the picnic tables by the playground.

There are 2 parking lots for Medlock Park that you can use... The 2nd (larger lot) can be GPS'ed to using 898 Scott Cir. The picnic pavillion (our meeting spot) is visible from either parking lots.
