| Dog-Related Notes: |
Through the winter, you guys have been leaving a lot of scat on the bike path and along its edges.
Please remind your two-legged friends to bring some baggies along, and deposit the full/partially full ones in appropriate receptacles. There is no sense in throwing them into the shrubbery where they won't biodegrade and look disgusting! |

| Comments: |
We walked from the Park & Ride on Franklin Street in Warren to the shopping plaza on County Road in Barrington and back, a 3.5 mile round trip. Most of the snow and ice from the recent storms has melted and what little is left is going fast, leaving a few minor puddles. We saw some cyclists out enjoying the "springlike" weather on February 19. It was tshirt weather for walking, but that won't last long. It was an excellent day to be outside. |
