The park has a lot of really unique things that make it really interesting.
Monster made of tires:
Tire Swings:
Zip line:
They also have a sandbox with purple sand, a climbing wall, and several twisty slides. There are enough tires around you might think this is an abandoned truck stop. That really isn't the case. It's a great park.
The kids were having fun and I was running around with the camera. Cari spotted a little boy playing pretty much by himself. He was probably 2-3 years old. Over a period of time observing him, Cari decided there wasn't any adults watching over him.
She went over and tried asking him where his mom was. He wasn't able to speak clear enough that she understood. By this time another mother joined Cari with this little boy.
I stayed clear of the whole situation. Randy and I were at the climbing wall.
Turns out the child's parent was with a large group away from the playground near a baseball field. Cari had went over asking if anyone belonged with the boy. The mother seemed bothered that Cari was asking about her son.
It's hard to believe a parent would leave their child on a playground hardly in eyesight of where she was. When a concerned adult comes over to find the parent, you are nothing but a bother. . . just like her kid. If that lady would have been more responsible three years ago, our population wouldn't have hit 300,000,000 until eleven seconds later this week.
So at the end of our visit, Randy and Meredith had a great time, I had taken a lot of pictures, and Cari re-introduced a mother to her son. Maybe next time we'll just go to the park across the street from the house.

Are they trying to give kids nightmares? Taht tire monster scares me.
New parks are cool and if there are things for mom & dad to do it's all the better. I dont like if I am at the park and cant see Zak let alone being any distance away. Some people really should be sterilized and not allowed to have offspring!!! Poor child. I hope he gets the love and attention he needs elsewhere
That tire monster reminds me of Stitch... from Lilo & Stitch. If he were...you know... a caterpillar... made of tires. But the face and expression looks the same from this distance!!
As for the poor boy. Sigh. When will parents learn? When something horrible happens to their kid? And *I* get flack for being too overprotective and always wanting them with me, where I can see them. Kudos to your wife!!
