We packed up as a family today, and walked over to the park. We let Indy stretch his legs and chase his ball. It was a good opportunity to use the new baby Bjorn that Boyd and Kristie got for us. Other than the trip to the pediatrician, this is the first time we've gone out as a group.
While at the park, we talked with two other neighbors. As it turns out, the park is about to get a $300K overhaul! The playground is already pretty big (about 30'x60'). It was installed about about five years ago and is mainly setup for 5-8 year olds and includes a little bit of handicap accessibility. But the new massively expanded playground (about 90'x30') will have areas for young toddlers and
some equipment for pre-teens. The wood chips will be replaced with a spongy material.
There is also talk of a new water play feature to replace the current one, but it would require another $20K in donations from residents. I'm not sure that's going to happen, but they are going to install a timer at any rate -- the current play area runs 24 hours a day!
On the way home, Ann snapped our picture from the upper deck.
