At The Park

Following the recommendation of O for 2, we visited Holstein Park over the weekend. When we arrived, the park was empty. Then again, we were there at 8am!


Yes, 8am. Now that Gilbert is going to school, he is expecting to be out the door and doing activities on the weekend morning. Need to teach him the art of relaxing. Probably need to teach it to myself as well!

He must have thought we were taking him to school, as he chanted his teachers name the whole way to the park!

It was a cool morning and overcast, but nice. Gilbert loved the park. He was not happy when departed. I had to carry him out! Each time I set him down to walk, he did a u-turn and started to run back!

Maybe between you guys, Bec, O and Matt and us we can explore every park in the city this summer!

I'm so glad you went! We were there at 8:30 am and we were surprised that it was so empty. Maybe those hip Bucktown kids sleep in!
