Where do you prefer to spend a lazy Saturday? Do you enjoy watching television, or perhaps shopping at the mall? When you have nothing on the agenda, where do you like to head first? For me, whenever I get the chance I'm always off to spend time at the local park. There is something about spending an afternoon at the park that I just cannot get enough of. There are so many great things about the park to love. A park is a great place because it is outside. It is healthy and refreshing to spend time out of doors and to breathe fresh air. When it is cool outside people can bundle up and be warm, and when it is warm out they can enjoy the sun and heat. A park is the perfect place to spend family time. There are usually a lot of things to do together. Most parks have playgrounds for children and space to play basketball, baseball, or volleyball as a family. Visiting a park is also a great way for friends to enjoy a Saturday together. At a park people can bring their dogs and other pets and let them play. There is nothing better than enjoying an afternoon with your family, friends, and your special pet. Most parks have a lot of space for pets to run, exercise and play. There are not too many ways to spend a lazy day that your dog can be involved. Another thing that is great about a park is that it is a place that people gather for special celebrations. Summertime holidays like the Fourth of July and Memorial Day are spent in parks by many people each year. Birthday parties and even wedding celebrations often take place in a special park. The possibilities are endless when you have a great park close to home. Everyone loves one of the greatest traditions that takes place at a park: barbequing. A great park always has grills that are open for use or fire pits that can be used to roast a hot dog or too. There is nothing better than to spend a day at a park and then barbeque your own dinner over the coals or a fire. Spending time at a park allows people to get away from the busyness and rushed pace of day to day life. People can be as active or as restful as they want to be at a park. People enjoy days surrounded by the people they love and doing the activities they love to do. They play great games and eat great food. For me, nothing quite beats a day at the park.
