My wife and I walked around the lake. Very peaceful. Nice escape into nature. This time my wife noticed a trail into the woods at the far end of the lake. So off we go. It turns out that there's a nice little path through the CD woods. We didn't go as far as we could. Think it's part of the greenway and would probably connect up with Brink Road. Can't be sure. This trail was very similar to a wooded trail in the Kentlands that runs along Muddy Branch. After about a half mile, we doubled back and finished going around the lake. We've been in the Village since 1974. Fun to find something new.

Went hiking with my wife this afternoon. Not very many people here. Beautiful day. Actually it was a perfect day. A few high school students were jogging. I assume they were training for Cross country. Something I did in high school. Think we walked about 3.5 miles. The lake seemed very full.

A nice selection of high quality artwork and sculpture. Selection changes frequently. A lot of room to walk around. People at the desk in the back can answer questions.

Since I live near the lake, I walk around the residential side about daily. I think my wife and I probably have the Lake Whetstone record. Moved to the village in 74, and to Whetstone in 83. Over that time we've walked 7 dogs around the lake. We're fortunate to have so many paths in the neighborhood. This year we've enjoyed the MV Center and the Professional Center development activity. Feel like I'm wondering all over so I'll stop now.

Nice little neighborhood park. Named after the Gaithersburg Director of Parks and Recreation. Not to crowded which is good these days. I've driven past it many times as I live in the Village. Today I was out early getting my Fitbit steps in and decided to cross the street and check it out. Since I'm a trail horse this is a big deal. It's very well shaded.
