An Evening at the Park

We live by the most fabulous park for walking. In the summer and fall Charlie and I used to go there to walk on their paved walking trail because it has mile markers so we'd know how far we'd gone. Now that Charlie is old enough to enjoy the play equipment though the park has become even more fabulous.

We held him at the top of the slide and took turns catching him. By the end he could hardly control himself he was having so much fun, he'd wiggle away from us and go down by himself before we were ready for him.

After we let him play for a while we walked on the trail for about a mile. Charlie talked to himself in his special Charlie language for most of the way. We're pretty sure he was telling us how badly he wants to come back tomorrow.
