The weather has been really nice here, and The Husband and I decided to take a picnic supper to a nearby park one afternoon. We walked along the walking trail (a half-mile) and enjoyed being out in the nice weather.

This is a county-operated park, so it is good to see how our tax dollars are working to give us a place to enjoy nature.

When we first arrived, someone was sitting on the dock reading. By the time we left, a photographer had come to take a picture of a family, using the dock for the setting.

| Beach volleyball, anyone? |

There were no players on this particular afternoon.
 |
| Picnic pavilion |
 |
| Play equipment |

The pavilion may be reserved by groups for special events, and children would enjoy the playground. There is lots of sun as it is moving to set in the west.
It was great to take the time to enjoy being outdoors on this day, and I hope you have been able to enjoy good weather where you are.
There are other pictures of fall scenes I want to share with you in another post. I hope you will return.
Thank you for reading. I appreciate your comments.
It's nice to have a pretty place like this almost all to yourself. Nice to see tax dollars put to good use, too. xo
