We can still walk the Riverwalk

Difficult times? Yes. We all have to figure out creative ways to stay positive and as they say, “think outside of the box.”

Laura Bell Adams went flying several weeks ago at the Bradenton Riverwalk which is a special gem in our town. There is a lot of open space, a great place to walk and you can keep your “social distance.” because, as you all know, that’s the new norm.

From the Realize Bradenton Website – As downtown Bradenton’s showpiece, the Riverwalk is a special place. Overlooking the Manatee River, the Riverwalk is a 1.5-mile, ADA-accessible.

So, since the Bradenton Riverwalk is open, go outside and get some fresh air. Take a walk and you can still stay safe by practicing social distancing staying 6 feet apart. Your dog would appreciate the different views as well as you.

Also, for more information about what is going on in our community, visit Realize Bradenton.com. A wonderful story about them was posted earlier this year here on The Suncoast Post.

Be safe everyone and make good choices.
