Yes, we planned on bringing chairs.
Does the Arboretum Woods Park sound ok? From some of the pictures I can see it looks like there are some benches around the walking area, and it looks like it's easy enough to get to. From what I've read, the Leask Lane Park is completely undeveloped.

Donna, I vote for Arborteum Woods Park....sounds like the better of the two. Let's just say this is the one
Paula
Nitro 11 1/2 yr old Doberman; right front amp June 2014. Had 6 doses carboplatin, followed by metronomic therapy. Rocked it on 3 legs for over 3 years! My Warrior beat cancer, but couldn't beat old age. He crossed the Bridge peacefully on July 25, 2017, with dignity and on his terms. Follow his blog entitled "Doberman's journey"

Nitro's vet said I should put his picture on a stick, and have a recording of him barking, so you will all think he is there! Lol
