The Park Across the Street











When we were looking for a house to rent for the next year, we decided amenities were key.  This house has turned out to be situated in the perfect spot for our family.  Just across the street sits a beautiful little city park that boasts a giant sledding hill, corn hole, porch swing, shelter house, playground, firepit and a connection to a multi-use path.  Did I mention that it also has a Little Free Library?  Well, it does!  I have already donated a book.  The sledding hill is quite steep and so fun to climb to the top.  Up there one can see for miles.  There is also a table with a chess/checkerboard. We are planning to use this park for our required PE minutes.  Who knows?  Perhaps we will find a house to buy in this neighborhood next year.  We won't go far, that is for certain.

  1. Beautiful flowers! And I'm curious about all the other things in your new environment/area! Enough material to write about and take pics :-)

  3. Oh, I'm glad you are getting settled in and enjoying your new location. That is so neat that you have such a nice park across the street -- it gives it the look of being out in the country. Wow, I can't believe all the niceties that your park offers -- and nobody wrecks them.?! I love the idea of those free little free libraries. I've seen a couple of those in people's front yards around our little town and thought it would be fun to do, but hey, nobody would ever see it at the end of our dead end road. ha Trevor isn't looking like that little boy anymore. Such sweet children! Enjoy your summer in your new place. The last home might have been fancier, but I think this one is already bringing you more joy! (Hugs) Friend!
