Not quite the secret garden, but close

It has taken some adjusting on my part to get used to my hour long lunch. At the bookstore, I got 30 min. and if you didn't bring you lunch, the actual eating time after buying food usually got squished to around 15 min. Now, I often find myself with time on my hands. I go out for a walk when the weather allows and I have on the right shoes.

During one walk, I discovered a blacktopped trail at the end of the street. I went a little further each day and it never seemed to end. Turns out this path is part of the Rock Island Trail and is connected to a solar system project as well. Seems that Peoria has re-created a scale replica of the solar system and this path falls into Jupiter's orbit.

I don't know if anyone else at work knows about the "hidden" treasure behind us. I think I almost like it better if it's my secret.
