Most people think of anything West of Riverside as the "West End" NO, that is not true. The "WestEnd" is one of the classic old Lakewood corner bars with good food. The "West End" was a strip mall designed to make what some perceived as less advantaged people out of Lakewood.
But to the friends and neighbors of this highly prized piec of property it is referred to as "Scenic Park." And it should be as it offers some of the most spectacular views of the Emerald Canyon and Metro Parks.
Neighbors walking and playing all over the place.
Food on many tables, this one was salads and condiments.
The Deck's Missy Limkeman was there with All Dog's Heaven.
Cookies and cakes.
Music all day.
Fun for all ages.
One of Lakewood's best known poets, Krista Blume, flipping burgers.
Wait I know this kid!
Aren't you one of David Anderson's kids?
Yeah, what about it, Mr. O'Bryan?
Sure enough, Ward 1 Councilman David Anderson sits down with residents.
While Reese checks out the desserts...
His dad, the much respected Ward 1 Councilman continues to draw a crowd.
A great afternoon was had by all.
Thanks for the invite Shawn.
