Most of the places I have been visiting in Des Moines have been “inside”, since it’s been pretty hot here lately. But I did get the chance to do some “outside” exploring too.

Some photos from a visit to Grays Lake Park. There’s a walking path that goes around the lake, and also runs along the Raccoon River.

For those who don't know, I live in a converted campervan and travel around the country, posting photo diaries of places that I visit. I am currently in Iowa.
