Great park for a walk or run or to share a bottle of wine with someone special. :)

Fisher Meadow is just west of CT10 on Old Farms Rd, about 2 miles south of Avon Mountain Rd. There are a bunch of soccer fields but the dog part is a pretty big pond– Avon’s reservoir– and the surrounding woods. There is a wide path used by runners/joggers and dog walkers. Since the clearing along the path is so wide there is enough sunlight for a fair range of wildflowers along the sides. The path gets right next to the water in spots and some dogs(not mine as she shuns getting wet) use these to go swimming as do some folks. There are also paths that go along the Farmington River. Pretty good spot to take the dog, especially in the summer as it is shady and in mud season as it is usually not that muddy.
