What I like about Green Lake: the 2.8-mile path that lets you walk (or run, or bike, or rollerblade) around the entire lake, the conversations you overhear while doing so, the dogs, the ducks, the theater at the bathhouse, the Spanish Lessons guy (I haven't seen him lately, but he walks around the lake wearing a "Spanish Lessons" vest, giving lessons to anyone), the rental boats, the patch of beach, the island in the middle of the lake called Duck Island.
Part two coming up tomorrow.
