Flowers and a Fire

The weather this Sunday was the nicest we've had in a long time (and it's even better today!).  So after Rob had mowed the lawn and I had thrown a batch of strawberries in the dehydrator, we decided to take Molly to the dog park.  None of the dog parks in town are particularly close to us, and only one of the dog parks in the metro doesn't require a permit, so we hopped in the car and headed to Colby Park in Windsor Heights. Colby Park is a nice little city park.  You have to walk a path from the park that goes under the interstate along a creek to get to the dog park.  So off we went.  When we got there, the fence was chained shut and a sign said "Temporarily Closed for Grass Reseeding."  We had even checked the park website before we left, so we were a bit bummed that the park was closed. 


We took Molly for a little walk around the park, and I took photos of the pretty flowers that have started blooming, so it wasn't a total loss.  We even stopped for ice cream on the way home. :)



It was so nice--dry, cool (but not cold, and not too windy, so we decided to have a fire after we got home from the park.
