Since I started walking, I wanted to explore the trails at
Plamann Park. This wasn’t going to be too hard to do since Appleton Pop Warner
plays most of their games out there and the hubby will do a few games every
fall. A few Saturdays ago, I got my opportunity to go wander through the trails.
Plamann Park is actually quite large and I only got to
explore a portion of the park. I started out walking around the football fields
to find a trail to pick up. It took a little ways but I found one and traversed
the trail. Once I got back to the football fields, I kept going and figured once
I hit my 10,000 I would turn around head back. Well I kept going and ended up
at Fox Valley Lutheran High School. I forgot that they butt up against each
other. I picked a trail and followed it to the road. I crossed the road and
tried to head the way we came in (towards the farm) but there was a wedding
party that was taking picture. I didn’t want to crash the party. I turned
around and got back to the football fields much quicker.
Although I only wandered a portion of the park, I was
disappointed with what I saw. There were dragonflies, butterflies, and lots of
wild flowers. Once I got up towards FVL, I saw 1 bunny. It was kind of boring.
It was peaceful and I wish I had a butterfly net to catch butterflies. However,
I wanted to see more animals. I guess I’m more of woods kind of girl than a
prairie kind of girl.
Don’t get me wrong, Plamann Park is still a wonderful place
for a hike and I will hike it again. I want to explore the rest of the park.
There’s always next football game.
