Ingenious park

My sister-in-law Jenny kept raving about a park in the area called the 'tot lot'. Raved to the point of almost sounding fanatical. Stephen and I kept asking each other "What could possibly make this park THAT great?"
And then I took the kids there.
Nestled in the middle of a neighborhood, it is a super junk yard of kid things. You know all those outside playsets you can buy for your backyard? They are there. Cars, trucks, kitchens, houses, rocking horses, you name it, it is there!
This is besides the regular playground equipment.
Someone had the ingenious idea that instead of selling or throwing away old outdoor kid play things, throw them into this park.
The kids love it. And every time we go, I meet such nice people there.
It is one of our favorite places to visit right now, while we are having such beautiful fall weather.
