This park and surrounding areas hold a lot of memories for me. I've walked past it many times and I have always loved the sound of the corn in the wind and the apples falling from the trees.

After the corn field I figured I would take a walk up the trails that lie on the large hill at the park. I remembered them being creepy at night, but not during the day.

As I walked through the park I had almost forgot about this creek bed. It is a recently new addition and quite beautiful when it's full.

This was a place that I remembered hearing some interesting sounds without the microphones and where I've seen a few migration of baby frogs.

This was about as far as I walked. I was getting close to I-43 so I decided to hang my microphones somewhere that would get less interference. While recording I thought I heard a voice but it turned out that no one was around me, it could have just been the express way.
