    What a cool photo. I really enjoy the original trail and there are always people using it when I drive by. Thank you to everyone who worked on the existing trail, and those who worked on the grant for the extension. This is so great for Springfield.

    Shut up 7:55 - that doesn't mean we can't take care of things for other people's enjoyment and health benefits. When's the last time you gave dropped some change in a homeless persons bucket? The state has been renting motel rooms for homeless people - buying food, clothes, and ebt cards that can be used to buy literally anything. You're probably one of them.

    Try living right off the trail. A lot of people can't read signs, especially no parking by the bridge. I miss the privacy,
