Hellyer Park

I decided to walk to Hellyer Park today. Slightly warm. On the way...

This must be where all the nerds live

Once I got there, I wanted to find some geocaches around the velodrome, but found this in my way:

I tried walking north up Palisade to get through a gate but it was locked so I just went home.

On the way back, I heard a "Hello" from a corner house. I didn't see anybody. Then a second "Hello": I spotted a cage on the porch and within was a green parrot. "Hello," it said again. He he. Parrot. Arrrr.

I also saw a house with a driveway but no garage door to meet it. It struck me as strange.

Hellyer Park was named after George Washington Hellyer, a '49er from Ohio who ended up farming. Senter Road was named after a another farmer from Maine named William Alfred Senter.
