Around 8:45 this morning, I encountered a strong stench coming from the woods to the west of the B-Line Trail in Switchyard park between lampposts 20 and 21. It smelled like rotting flesh. Could someone please investigate to make sure it isn't a hazard or concern?

While weed wrangling today (Asian Bittersweet/Japanese Stiltgrass/Multi-Flora Rose), we found this Beech Tree down on one of the paths in Winslow Woods. It is on the left fork of the path closest to the community garden. We removed enough of the limbs and brush from the fallen tree for visitors to use the path. We do not know city protocol for mitigation/removal of fallen trees in greenspaces, so we left the balance of the removal for the city. Thank you.

I was looking at a map of Cascades (Lower) today, as I am attending a gathering at Sycamore tomorrow. I also saw, to my extreme dismay, that the south entrance to the lower park is all pedestrian and bicycle! I am supposed to be attending a reserved gathering in Waterfall Shelter in week and a half. My right side is about 80% paralyzed. I can neither walk that far nor use a wheelchair to get there. I HOPE that this doing-away with the road is not permanent. This city is increasingly putting lots of money behind bike trails while doing darned near NOTHING for the physically disabled. I remind you that we too are taxpayers, as I have been here for nearly 50 years. I should be able to attend my paying group's function at Waterfall, as I have in years past.

Is the pool basketball hoop as Bryan Park pool coming back soon? It was a great way for older kids to enjoy playing in the pool together. They definitely miss it now that it is gone.

We have seen a few people frequently using the tennis court at Sherwood Oaks Park for soccer. They would practice shooting soccer ball against the tennis wall and court fences. Those structures are damaged because they are not designed to withhold such strong impact. Please consider putting a sign to warn against similar activities. Thank you!

Is there, by chance, a lost and found for the Lower Cascades waterfall area? We may have misplaced a bag there. Thank you!
