Walking home from the Park

Although I generally dislike living in the suburbs (too far of a commute, don't feel like we fit in much with our neighbors), there are some perks. We live walking distance from two parks -- toddler walking distance. After I got home from work today, the kids started clamoring for "Dinosaur Park." There are lots of slides and rock climbing walls and a relief picture of a dinosaur skeleton (hence the name).

Anthony took this on zoom from our backyard as we walked home:

This is another perk that keeps us from moving: behind our house is a huge field, basically public park land, and we only have a neighbor on one side. The view from our backdoor is trees.


Colin had a fever and got a little tired on the way home, and said, "Hold you..." Anna, though, is still running.

Here I am, supervising everyone coming in the back gate.

What a lovely bunch. The nice weather across the country was enjoyed by everyone we spoke with today from Nevada to Florida.......
You all look like you had a good walk and Anna still had all that energy after going all the way to Dinosaur Park.
Nice pics of a great venue......

Really appreciate the pics Jenn, they are so lovely - bet you had a fabulous time. Isn't it a refreshing change being able to actually walk to the park rather than having to drive.
