The trails along the Tulsa stretch of the Arkansas River is not my favorite place to go for a walk or a run in this city. 

I prefer hills and trees and the smell of earth as opposed to water. But it's high on the list. <a href="http://www.riverparks.org/" target="_blank">River Parks</a> is crawling this time of year with every size and shape of human imaginable, and there are more fancy dogs on promenade than you could scare in a week. Not that I've ever tried this. I just think about these things. 

As for its spot on my list of places to watch a spring or summertime sunset in Tulsa, well. It's tops.
