The new park

We have LOVED going to the park the last 2 or so years.  There was a particularly great one not far from Schuylar that had all the things we liked, so I was a little bummed to be going in the opposite direction...however, we found out recently that we are within (what i'd guess is) a quarter mile of 2 great parks!  One doesn't necessarily replace the other, but combined, she is very happy at play.The slides are a little different too--just enough to make her question them, but after a few runs, she was up and at 'em as usual.  This one has more steps too vs. ramps at the old one.  Sometimes there will be a kid or two there, she usually wants to socialize or follow--which not everyone (as we're learning) is ok with.  She really is a social gal.She decided she wanted to slide with Tasha--so we grabbed her and away they went!  She also had some new equipment to try out, and this park has mulch instead of gravel (probably a bigger issue for us than her) so we have to keep an eye out for splinters--but we don't have to worry about it going (directly) into her mouth either.The bridge is a feature they have at Windsor park she enjoys (when we go there) so it's fun to have it too--especially since she's pretty confident on her feet (notice Tasha went with us all over on this visit).We'll have to report out on pirate park soon.  The first time we didn't bother with a camera, but she liked it a lot.  For now, the only real question is which park to go to--a good quandary to have!
