Very lovely
This is a lovely small garden with a few parking places along the edge. It is fall and there's not much blooming but the grounds are kept well and there are many picnic tables. I stopped by after lunch for just a walk through it. I was quite impressed with the intriguing way they had used stones for their paths. I am guessing they were donations from various landscapers because there are such a variety of different stones but it makes a very interesting walkway.
Google listed a Japanese garden and a Butterfly House I'm not sure I saw the Butterfly House and the Japanese garden is very minimal and certainly could use some addition of gravel or another bonsai tree and maybe even a little plaque to say it is the Japanese garden.
The park has been here for at least 37 years according to the plaque at the entrance of the garden and it's curious to me if it gets much use as their reviews are mostly over 2 years old. I'm glad that Google map showed it as a local Garden to see as I am visiting this area.
Went to the circus at the gym. Didn't see the above named place.
