Truth in advertising: Motter Park
The Icon's editor found this message on Johnny Appleseed Metropolitan Park District's Facebook page:
"It's the hectic week before Christmas. Are you feeling overwhelmed? One of the BEST stress relievers is taking a walk! With the mild temperatures and sunny skies predicted this week, take a walk at any of the Johnny Appleseed Metro Parks.
"The trails are well maintained and safe! You are no more than 15 minutes from any park in Allen County. From Bluffton to Spencerville to Westminster to Bath township, we've got you covered.
"Take a break, take a walk. Your stress decreases exponentially.
Merry Christmas."
A stroll through Bluffton's Motter Park, 10740 Columbus Grove-Bluffton Rd., proved to have good footing, large and small scale views of interest, and simply spectacular weather. A heron was seen but refused to pose for the Icon. Five stars.
