Tennis Anyone?

Today I decided to veer from my normal walking route and head to Kirby Park. Years ago I would walk from K Mart on Rt. 11 to Green Acres in Kingston and back. Today I feel it is not too safe to do this alone. Even though I had my pepper spray, walking the dike felt a bit creepy. Not many people were about. I thought it was curious not seeing anyone playing tennis on such a beautiful day, Yes it was 85 degrees, but having grown up in the south in the 60's and 70's, we always played tennis in 90 plus degrees. The next cool day was November! And the river front project. No one. We are very fortunate to have these beautiful areas. Any thoughts?
