LANCASTER,OHIO:: MOUNT PLEASANT:: RISING PARK LINKING TO SKYWATCH FRIDAY & FRIDAY’S FENCES
“There are three kinds of men. The one that learns by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence for themselves.”Will Rogers
“Love your neighbor as yourself; but don't take down the fence.” Carl Sandburg
“A famous Lancaster landmark is Mount Pleasant, a 250-foot (76 m) high sandstone bluff called "Standing Stone" by earlier Native American peoples. It is located in Rising Park, a large city park on the city's north side. It is possible to climb to the top of Mount Pleasant by following a short steep marked trail from the park through the woods that cover the bluff's other sides. There is also a cave known unofficially as "Devils Kitchen" Starting Up the trail
“I have two doctors, my left leg and my right.” G.M. Trevelyan
Almost to the top.(Hot Chic on the trail)
“An early-morning walk is a blessing for the whole day.” Henry David Thoreau..Time for some sky
“When you have worn out your shoes, the strength of the shoe leather has passed into the fiber of your body. I measure your health by the number of shoes and hats and clothes you have worn out.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
“He has sat on the fence so long that the iron has entered his soul.” David Lloyd George..I’ll not be sitting on this Fence Rail…LOL

To clear up the controversy. Linda and I try to walk for about an hour 6-7 days a week. For the past month 5 of those walks each week have been to Mount Pleasant.. Linda gets to the top in about 1/2 the time it takes me LOL
I actually love this sort of thing, you should check out

You must be so proud! Well done. I love fencing. We put in a gate, we were so tired of unwanted visitors!
