My daughter and I have been bringing our furry friend Miley to naperville riverwalk since hes been 8 weeks old. He absolutly loves it. If I say the word Naperville riverwalk he gets so excited.and wants to get in the car. We could be 5 or more blocks away from there and he senses somehow it's coming up. Mikey would run laps around there. Every overy would stop us to tell us how beautiful he is and always ask to pet him. All the people are very nice and friendly. And theirs alwzys policemen on bicycles riding around to help keep us safe.its always very clean they have.such beautiful flowers and landscaping. They decorate their walk on bridges for every season or holudays. Mikey is a border collie/ Australian shepherd and has beautiful markings. Hes a blue mural. Even though Mikey Blue us now 10 yrs old and has had surgery on both back legs (one being a torn acl ) he is no longer able to run like he use to. However he still gets so excited if i say Naperville riverwalk. In stead of running around like he was once able to do we now have our own spot where we sit in the grass facing the river and the restsrants and enjoy listening to the music. Its amazing how nice people are there. Even though Mikey can't get up and run people come up to him and pet him and talk to him. We have a huge yard at home but he still prefers to lay down at the riverwalk much more. After 3 hours or more being g up there I have to coax him to go home.. we re so happy that Naperville riverwalk has given us that special, serene and lovely place to call our...

Read moreSo check it. Naperville is a nice place. All them bougie chicks wandering around in packs with their ugg boots and their yoga pants and their starbucks. Dudes in polos and khaki shorts. Tons of food places, ice cream, cupcakes. There's a grilled cheese store. Grilled. Cheese. Store. I know that's poor folk food, and I know that because I used to eat for a week on like $5 rockin the cheese. They charge like $8 to grill you one cheese though. It has bbq pork, or chicken or whatever you want on it too tho. Anyway, my larger point is that this is a nice neighborhood. So let's talk river walk. I saw a whole family bathing in the river the other day while another family drifted on by in some canoes. Like, WHAT? They've got it all. There's a bell tower kicking out bangers all day, they got some kinda xylophones for people to play along, I saw a string quintet playing Bach or something the other day. I was like, when did I get to Leipzig in 1724? Wild. Anyway, this is the place to be, Summer, Spring, Fall, even Winter. We're talking magical four seasons entertainment for you. Five stars. I know haters coming at ya with that, It's not as nice as Venice bull. Listen bro, Venice is sinking. You think Naperville about to sink into the swamp? Ain't no swamp here, this is Illinois. We repping those fluvial geomorphisms all day, err day. Don't step up with that beef less y'alls tryna get river walked...
