Mary took a day trip out of town today for one of her volunteer activities so Drew and I had a boys day out at La Fortune Park.

The first thing we did was take a three mile stroll on the track that goes around the park. Drew walked about half and rode in the stroller about half. The little guy surprised me at how much he walked and even ran! I think seeing everyone else jogging made him want to jog too.

There are enough twists, turns, scenery and things going on, from construction to sports, to see that Drew never got bored. Every few minutes we'd stop for a second to watch an activity or to take a closer look at something.

We got to see people playing golf, baseball, tennis, frisbee, swimming and, of course running and walking. We also saw lots of birds, squirrels, ducks geese and dogs.

At the end of our walk, we wound up at the playgrounds. The park is nice in that it has different age appropriate equipment areas. Even better, the equipment was well shaded. Drew had a great time climbing, sliding, swinging and just exploring.
