Wolfe Park

I recently moved to a new apartment at the end of the summer and Wolfe Park is nearby. This weekend, Louie and I went for a walk around it and took some photos. The weather was beautiful: sunny and not too warm. Overall, this park is amazing, and it beats Loring Park any day. What I love about it is the variety of features - a large grassy hill, an outdoor theatre, a pond and a creek, two play areas for kiddos, and a lovely boardwalk through the woods. There aren't any fountains for Louie to play in (bummer), but he was happy with wandering around in the shallows of the pond.

There is a lovely little green-covered arbor next to the larger playground. Aside from the kiddos playing there, it would be a lovely place to read a book.

Louie, venturing out into the pond. There were a lot of sunnies swimming around.

Lots of ducks in the pond. They swam over to me when we were on the dock. I suspect they're used to getting fed there.

Another view from the path around the pond.

There's a sweet little bubbling inlet from the creek to the pond.

Lovely tree.

View of the pond from the boardwalk, through the trees. Feels like you're up north somewhere, rather than in the busy metro.

A happy dog after an hour of wandering around the park.
