Big red playground

Today, Will and his dad went out for some adventures. After boring trips to Wilshire Park (someone took away all the swings... weird) and Grant Park (just a lame vibe there today), the Peterson men thought to themselves, "Maybe there's something cool to do in Washington." So they left the state of Oregon, responding to something that was calling to them from across that Interstate Bridge. But what was it? And more importantly, where? The boys had no destination in mind and recklessly dared fate to be their compass.

And fate did not disappoint.

Just over the bridge, they took the Mill Plain Blvd exit. His dad saw some nicely manicured grass. Perhaps a good park for playtime? No, in fact, it was Clark College. Will and his dad decided to check it out. And then... their destination was revealed.

A gigantic, fire engine red and white play structure, right there on campus. Seriously, it was amazing. Ben managed to catch a few pictures on his cell phone.

A Very Good Day

Today was the first legitimately warm and sunny day of the year in Portland. We definitely made the most of it.

After mom showed Will how to blow on a dandelion...


... we went to Grant Park.



A Very Good Day... Part 2

After Grant Park, we headed home so Will could take a nap. When he woke up, it was off to Oaks Park.

He loved this car ride.



And here he is with his dad on his first rollercoaster. At this point, he was nervous/excited.


Who's not smiling in this picture?

A Very Good Day... Part 3

And then to finish the day, Will played in the sprinkler on our new lawn.

He DOES want to be the following:
  • Writer

The other day, I asked Will who this was:


He said, "Eeyore." I can see his point.
