Parks & Nature
Whirlpool Trails are good for taking a walk and running. There is a main trail that goes more or less straight to the end and there are smaller trails that branch off to the sides. If you come from 6 and merge onto Old Taylor the trail begins on the right side after the pedestrian crossing.

The lake is nice and the trails length are marked--good for a running workout. There is sculpture art in the park and some pretty houses to look at and on the park's edge is Living Foods--a cute organic food store and cafe which serves smoothies, homemade popsickles in enticing flavors.
