Forest Bluff of East Brushy Creek (Round Rock, TX) – August 2020

 For this trip, as part of the Georgetown Running Club’s 2020 Summer Tour, I went over to a place near where I used to live.  Sure it wasn’t a new trail to me, but it had been a couple years since I’d been this way, so it felt new.  I didn’t recall seeing the Bigfoot crossing sign the last time I was out this way, and never recalled seeing any bipedal non-humans in previous years here.  I don’t know if this trail has a specific name.  There’s an access point at Joe B. Freeman Park (off of Forest Ridge Blvd), and another near the Forest Grove HOA Park.  There’s a neighborhood here called Forest Bluff, thus I always called the trail that way.

 The trail started out being tree-lined, so it provided a nice bit of shade as you went west following Brushy Creek.  When it gets near the access point for the Lake Forest HOA Park, the trail opens up and becomes less-shady.  To continue west on the trail you have to go along the bridge on Kenney Fort Blvd, and there it really opens up.  Eventually the trail takes you to the Play For All Abilities Park, which was off A.W. Grimes Blvd.  I crossed Grimes to take a picture of the how the trail continued west, and did a 180 and headed back the way I came.
