Fun at the park

In North Carolina we lived in the middle of nowhere. It was 25 minute drive to church, work was 45 minutes away, grocery stores were an 8 mile drive down the road. Getting to parks and libraries was the same hassle.


So when we had the opportunity to relocate to GA our mantra was "close to a park, library, work, schools and shopping. This point was repeated at each house we looked at. We were fortunate to find a house close to all those things. Mountain Park Park (redundant I know) is less than a mile down the road. Our county has great parks. An old swimming pool was closed at the park and for the past year this part of the park was under renovation. Tonight we went out and enjoyed the new part of the park. The county put in climbing boulders with lots of good hand holds, a big grass lawn, a skate park and four big kid swings. I thought the kids would really like the rock climbing boulders but they spent more time on the swings. It was a good, fun(and free!!) friday night with the family.


We also checked out the skate park but didn't stay very long as we suspected the skaters were smoking something illegal.

We had rain storms all day on friday but the Rain finally broke and the remaining clouds acted as a giant reflector at dusk creating a beautiful evening for photography. The last picture of the kids shows the results. I'm seldom seen on the log but Crystal took a fun picture of me jumping off the swing. Don't worry dad. I repaired my divot.
