Lagoon Greenway Park: Vero Beach

By Pogo Kaye

Mom and Dad took me to a park for a really nice long smelly walk through trails today. Woohoo! I finally got to leave the campground. The park is Lagoon Greenway located along the Indian River Lagoon in the southern part of Vero Beach on the mainland. It is part of the Indian River Aquatic Reserve.

When we got back to our campground, I was pretty tuckered out. I took a nice long nap before my dinner.
