Around Our Neighborhood

One morning Tim went off to help coach a few Seoul Tri teammates in the pool. He was working on their stroke technique and teaching them drills to improve their swim efficiency.

Just a few days before, Isaac had asked me to explore a path he had seen on our drive drop the big boys off at the bus for school.  It was a beautiful, rather warm, summer day so rather than sitting around inside, we strapped on our shoes and Baby L and headed outdoors. The path lead to an opening with some interesting rocks, and there are several other paths that lead off from there. We have explored all of this before, it has just been a while.

After a little bit of time meandering, we headed off to a playground that isn’t too far up one of the paths. To my surprise, when we arrived, there was a completely new area added next to the playground. It was an all wooden play area and the boys loved it. They came up with games, they climbed, they moved logs; it really was a little boy’s dream area!

The boys were getting hungry, so we decided to go grab some ice cream! Not long after dad showed up to play for a few minutes before we all headed home.
