One of the perks of living where we do is that we our summers usually last well into September. Another is that our suburban/urban area truly believes in preserving plenty of green space for fun outdoors. Even though we have lived here for seven years, we are constantly finding new hidden park gems everywhere around us. We walked back deep into a wooded riverbed park in Arlington today and discovered a perfect playground, a canine water park, and some wonderful kid-friendly waterfalls all within minutes of each other. Here's Katie doing her best monkey impression at the playground.
Since we are now post-Labor Day, all of the area pools are closed for the summer. But, that doesn't stop our temperatures from reaching the high 80s-90s at times. The river was the perfect place to hang out and cool down today. Plenty of other kids were out picnicking and river-splashing as well, so the kids had a blast with the crowds. Alas, back to real world tomorrow for Katie. Michael starts school on Thursday!!!
