Food tastes better when eaten outside…
I don’t know who the first person was to ever say it, but I know we all think it from time to time- food tastes better when eaten outside. If you are backyard-less like me, or if you just like to get away without going out of town, the American River Parkway is a great place to visit.
There are quite a few picnic spots along the Parkway, as well as convenient parking (for a fee), decent restroom facilities (no fee), picnic tables, and barbeque grills. Since the weather has been so nice lately, my family and I decided to have a picnic dinner at one of these local parks. It was one of the nicer evenings we have shared together in a while, and we ended the outing with a stroll along the river.
I have yet to visit all of the different parks along the river, however, from personal experience I have found the parks in the Fair Oaks and Sunrise Blvd area to be enjoyable. Check out Sacramento Parks for more detailed information about the American River Parkway and all it has to offer.
