A Walk Around Blythe Island Regional Park in Georgia

February 5, 2023 Google Maps calls this park Blythe Island Recreation Park, but the sign at the park says Blythe Island Regional Park. I am going to make a wild guess that Google is wrong! It is a beautiful park with RV camping, hiking trails, catch and release fishing lake, picnic areas, and a marina. […]

Another Section of the Columbus Georgia Riverwalk

December 10, 2022 On Thursday (December 8), we decided to see another section of the Riverwalk. It was south of Hemlock Park and had parking right along the Riverwalk.
