Perspective (a.k.a., PARKS)

Things change.  So does perspective.  I was recently planning a get-together with an old friend.  In a town where I lived for 4 years of my life (aka, COLLEGE).  Now, we both have children and I haven't been in that town for {ahem} a while.  I had NO IDEA where to find a good park.

I lived in my current town for 3 years when I was single.  My last year here, I ran a couple of days a week with a friend, at a park near her home.  I recently found a "new" park for my kiddos and I to visit (one of my summer goals is to go to a "new" park every week).  Lo and behold, it was the same park where I used to run.  I had NO IDEA there was a playground at the park.  I had never noticed it.

Now, as we're driving around town, in any town, parks are one of my top priorities to find.  Road trips?  Parks are a definite must.  We were driving to Las Vegas and needed a park.  Any one know of a park in Beaver?  There is one.  And it's the BEST PARK that I have ever seen.  There is something there for everyone (adults, too!).
