Have an hour or two to enjoy the outdoors? Go to the Parslow Road Conservation Area, which offers an easy 1/2 mile walk through woods and fields to Oaks Creek. Great for bird watching, picnicking, fishing, exploring. You also can launch a canoe or kayak and paddle Oaks Creek. Dogs are welcome but must be leashed and controlled by their owners and cleaned up after.
