Southeast Springfield Outing with Haley Kilburn

Posted On 2025-10-07

Another warm sunny day off, another fun outing with Haley Kilburn.

This time, we walked around Southeast Springfield.

We started with lunch at Farmers Gastropub.  We enjoyed their homemade potato chips and Scotch eggs.

After lunch, we started our walk down Galloway Creek Greenway Trail, and stopped by Kingdom Coffee.  We sat outside and enjoyed their SEASONAL Pumpkin Spice Latte.  Haley's latte was topped with more cinnamon powder than mine!

Then, we resumed walking the trail to Sequiota Park.  We were endowed with spectacular scenery, such as babbling brooks.

Finally, we walked down Galloway Creek Greenway Trail all the way to the Nature Center.

We both truly enjoyed our really long hikes, and got our fair share of sunshine.  We had a wonderful Monday afternoon.
