Picnic Places?

Walking the trail at the Reinstein Nature Preserve Saturday reminded me again about how much I love to eat outdoors. So with summer on the immediate horizon -- or so they say --I'm thinking about prime picnic spots in the area.

My absolute favorite is the Niagara Parkway, the road along the river that goes into Niagara Falls. And the road that goes into Niagara-on-the-Lake is hardly shabby.

But both these places are in Canada and at lot of people are bridge-o-phobic this year. Who's got some really spectacular ideas on this side of the border?

Picnic places are secret places, see?

Today they are remote and pristine, romantic and sweet. Tomorrow, after publicizing, they are overrun, traffic-jammed and polluted.

So in answer to your question: What picnic places? I got no stink'in picnic places.
