 Cleveland Park and the Blimp
After work I headed straight to Greenville Tech and got on the Swamp Rabbit Trail through the parks. I turned onto the Y loop and saw a Goodyear Blimp struggling along in the wind. After I finished the loop the blimp looped around me and flew straight over me. I think that it was making an advertising circle around downtown Greenville. After I had turned around at the other end of the trail I saw the blimp heading off to the southwest toward Atlanta which was the direction it was going when I first saw it coming into town. The trail is still blocked at Falls Park and the river is drained while they are working on the river bank below the Peace Center. I made a couple of extra loops at the Y and also from the Y loop back into Cleveland Park and around the dog park.
