Chambers Bay

My hometown of University Place, WA recently opened up the Chambers Bay Golf Club and walkway. It's an area that is owned by the county and so they built a really expensive golf course but also they have a 3 mile walking loop and paved trail that goes through the golf course and has a beach front walkway. Although it is very steep to walk down to the beach - it is an amazing view! And it has become a very popular place for it seems like everyone in the city to walk on. One of the days that I went with my dad, Rob and Ellie - we ran into one of my best friends Laura and her husband Sean. There is such a difference from living in a small, close knit suburb like University Place where there are only 35,000 people versus Mesa where there are 400,000 people in our suburb! The whole time I was walking on the trail I was jealous that they didn't have this when I was growing up there because it would have been the best for all of our cross country runs in high school.
