While not confirmed by "official sources", Presidents Bill Clinton (after eating fish and chips at Cap'n Yoby's), George W. Bush and Barack Obama all visited this beloved Americana location. People of all backgrounds travel to this place of spirituality to find clarity in life. Within a few hundred feet, you can leave nuts of gratitude at the feet of the mysterious squirrel shrine. To this day, no one knows where this 20 foot tall squirrel statue came from, only appearing in the midst of a summer lighting storm. Without this Nutty Narrows Bridge, squirrel families would have been separated. Longview founding fathers, as the nation's second planned city, made sure that great divide never occurred! This is a strong theory as to why the great squirrel appeared so long ago. Give praise to his generosity and venture to the Nutty Narrows Bridge.

It's across from the college, nice area. We spent about 30 mins in the park feeding squirrels, checking out the train. Across the street the dental office had done some community outreach and had various paintings in the parking spots which was fun to...
