Water Park



Our park on the Columbia where I love to walk is the best. They have great trails for walking, beautiful scenery, ball fields, boat ramps, swim areas, picnic shelters, you name it. But the playground is incredible. Its called the playground of dreams. You could lose your kid in there (it happens often!) because it is huge. My kids, of course love it. It has been a little too warm for running around the play structures, so the water park adjacent to it is more our style these days. It is fun to see all the kids play. Its quite crowded, but there are enough fountains to keep everyone busy. We had a great time last week playing. Sage thought she was in heaven-water fountains galore! She tried a gulp from each fountain; no worries about dehydration! Hayden has played in this park many times, usually he is pretty timid (I know, shocking). But on this day, he let loose and got soaked. He would stand over a little hole in the ground and stare at it until he got a face full of water. I think there are unwritten rules that all kids must try to cover the holes with their toes, resulting in a high pressure guyser when the water shoots up. Typically mom or some small unsuspecting child gets blasted. Its fantastic.
