Our neighborhood park


We love our neighborhood park. Russell and I and sometimes Dan take our daily walks here.

If we happen to walk in the mornings, mostly older people are enjoying the time on the track. They are keeping mobile and we even see one older lady doing her yoga- just amazing flexibilty!

If we walk in the afternoons, Russell and I see the field filled with children and teens practicing soccer. The coaches/dads/moms cheer and encourage the teams and I remember that these are the next generation of adults.

If we walk in the early evenings, the park is quiet once again, the sun is setting over the San Andreas hills, and everyone else has gone home. That is when we love the park the most because then it is ours. And we take another lap around!

8 1/2 months old- Russell loves his giraffe which he cuddles with while he sleeps. Needless to say, the ears and tail are well chewed:-) Russell loves to play with paper and other non-toy items like Dad's computer wires. He is slowly working on crawling but he doesn't like to exude too much energy since Mom and Dad can carry him where he wants to go. Russell loves to smile and makes Redwood City a happier place when he and his mom run errands to Target, Safeway, and the library!
