Do you think of Lynnwood is merely one giant shopping center and street after street filled with big box stores? You'll know better after taking this tour that goes past several historic buildings and includes a stop to see the last remaining car of the Seattle-Everett Interurban Railway. You'll learn about the Little Landers, the Alderwood Manor chicken ranchettes, and more. We'll stop for lunch at Whole Foods before tackling the big hill back to our starting point.  The route is mostly on the InterurbanTrail, which spurred the development of the area, with time also spent poking around central Lynnwood in the Scriber Lake area.

Bring money for lunch; water and snacks, and a spare tube and tools for flat fixing. Come early for the safety briefing -- we'll try to leave promptly at 10am.

DIRECTIONS TO START: From I-5 just north of Lynnwood, take the 164th St. SW exit and turn onto 164th heading east towards Mill Creek.  Turn left (north) at the 2nd traffic light after the freeway,  at Meadow Road. Turn right at 146th St SW, and the  park will be on your right just past 4th Ave. W.
