Picnic area

This is one of the many picnic areas that are set up around Thacher Park near the edge of the escarpment. In warmer weather, these places are filled with people enjoying barbecues, playing games (there are softball diamonds here and there in the park), and just hanging out.

Someone must have been planning an event and set up this canopy, but there was no sign of activity.

I was here in May and it was still too chilly for much picnicking. But it was still very pretty with all of the fresh green growth.

Picnic tables, barbecue grills, and water fountains nestled among the pines.
