First, a couple of Tiffani's photography talents... She loves taking pictures of the sun peeking through things. The first picture is through the trees at Ross Park when we were climbing and the second is at the Park in Twin through the railroad tracks.
I put this old picture of Dad sitting in front of a rock (from 1963) in the scrapbook I made. Mom said the picture was taken at Twin Falls Park. Well, a google search of "Twin Falls Park" just took us to the Twin Falls Parks & Rec Dept. off Shoshone Street. Mom remembered walking down a lot of stairs, too. So we checked out what appeared to be a park down & behind the the Parks and Rec building.
This is from the parking lot looking down into the Park.
This is the path (& apparently someones driveway!) that we walked down to get to the greenbelt path. Doesn't look to steep & no stairs there, but it had a pretty good slope!
Wooden bridge & a sign that said "private property". There was a house behind all those trees on the left. The greenbelt path started here.
The sign at the beginning of the greenbelt path.
The rock that I thought might be "the" rock.
Part of the greenbelt. The door in the cliff was open - Brianna really wanted to explore some more, but we didn't!! The top of the cliff/rocks on the right is the parking lot.
The path where we came from - The bridge we walked under is Shoshone Street.
We walked a little further, just under the train track. The path kept going, but I don't know to where or how far!
There was this old building...
And then through the trees we saw this concrete trough "thingy" that came down from the building. Don't know the significance of it, but Mom remembered walking down to see a building of some sort so just wonder if this may have been it. It was up on the hill across from the creek we were walking beside.
So here's a picture of the picture of Dad by the rock & the rock I took a picture of - looks pretty similar though taken at different angles. I'd say it could be the place Mom & Dad were at 40+ years ago!!
It'd be fun to explore the greenbelt a little more, but we stopped on our way home last weekend & it was 97 degrees & the path was in the sun, so we didn't spend too much time down there. We also never came across the picnic area Mom remembered, but like I said that path continues on. ...So Mom, does any of it look familiar? :)
