Expedition

This is a spot crossed by thousands of people on days with (American) Football or Soccer (Football) games. Through a circuitous route, I could visit the area and then continue across a floating bridge to my place of work.

I expected this plaza to be closed, as the stadium steps are nearby and the seats and field beyond. Arriving, I was pleasantly surprised to find the gates open, and quickly found the spot in a light rain.

I then headed up the steps, to find a second set of gates I never noticed before. Happy to find the field closed but the plaza open, I further documented my success and headed to work.

We do love our cloverleafs (though probably not as much as road planners in southern California) but I managed to plot a route to work that avoided them. What I didn't avoid was traffic, and the commute consumed quite a bit more time than usual. My route home will be more traditional, around the north end of the lake, completing my loop.
