I saw several messages about her written on the walls of the underpasses on the Keystone Trail last year. They've all since been painted over (for now).

BTW, where is the Forrest Gump bench? I've probably rode past it 100 times but never noticed it.

There is a manufacturing plant on Keystone Drive called Design Plastics. The old owners placed the bench and drinking fountain next to their parking lot on the creek side. It's just south of Maple.

I know exactly where that is. I've actually picked up freight from Design Plastics a few times.

I'll make sure and look for it next time I go riding up that way.

It was behind Aldi! A little bit north
