TL/DR:
Easy,
less
populated,
green,
calm.
Have
a
bike
to
show
off,
go
to
Rillito.
The
Rillito
was
very
busy
this
morning
with
a
lot
of
bicyclists.
Doesn't
leave
a
lot
of
places
to
just
enjoy
a
walk
and
scenery.
Fort
Lowell
Park
is
a
perfect
alternative.
The
pond
here
is
an
amazing
morning
walk:
the
turtles
sun
themselves
on
the
edge
of
the
pond
and
when
they
slip
back
into
the
water
their
little
heads
poke
out
and
watch.
There's
no
feeding
the
ducks-
a
few
signs
around
to
help
you
remember.
I
could
imagine
that's
why
there's
no
too
much
bird
poop
around
the
edge
of
the
pond.
The
benches
here
all
have
good
shade
in
the
morning.
The
sound
of
the
fountain
is
so
much
better
of
an
experience
than
the
whirr
clicking
of
all
the
expensive
bikes
in
Rillito
going
too
fast
for
pedestrians.
The
trees
also
deserve
a
mention.
Tucson
isn't
the
leafiest
place.
Agua
Caliente
Park's
tree/pond
experience
on
the
eastside
is
what
I
expect
from
a
park
in
desert.
Reid's
pond-
great
park
too-
feels
too
engineered.
The
trees
here
at
the
pond
at
big,
climby,
and
hella
leafy.
The
kind
of
leafy
that
feels
cool
as
you
walk
by
it.
Tucsonans
know
what
I'm
talking
about.
