Travalon always finds the coolest places. His coworker told
him about a park in the town of Dunn, and he took me to see it because it has
an island. There is a pond in the middle of the park, and in the middle of it
is a small island that is also a hill. I’m not sure if it’s artificial, but
there are other funny hills like that in the immediate area, so most likely the
hill is natural and the pond is artificial. There is a path around the low part
of the island, so we went around that until running into a family of geese who
didn’t seem too friendly, so we scrambled up the hill and then went down the
stairs at the other end of the island. There is a bench up on the top of the
hill so you can sit and admire the views. Then we walked along the path that
went around the whole park, and it was almost two miles. By then it was getting
darker, so we headed home, stopping at Lake View Hill Park to see if there was
an impressive view of the city lights from there. You can see the Capitol
Building from up there, and they have a beautiful fountain that was lit up with
blue lights. I will post a photo of the fountain at some point. Unfortunately,
I did not think to take a picture of the goose family with their eight cute
babies, and it was probably for the best that we did not get close enough to
take an ideal picture. They were already getting a bit upset with us.

Its'actually called Burke Town Park. Just south of Sun Prairie off Nelson Road, a bit east of hwy. 151. I discovered it on a lunch break at work.I consider that fountain at Lake View Hill Park to be the Trevi Fountain of Madison. It was a nice evening just exploring new places close to home.
