Visiting a park in Belvidere

We are near Belvidere, Illinois, so we headed into the town on Wednesday to check out the city park.

It was a big park with a walking path that went around a lot of it and along the river, interspersed with playgrounds along the way.

Kim enjoying the swings!

There were sliding toys like a zipline...

Carl pushing one of his granddaughters...

Carl?

Are you *sure* you should go on that?

Well, I guess it worked.. but I don't know whether the pipe was bent like that before you went on it!

The girls enjoyed these slides a lot!

A bridge across either the stream or the river

Ducks "fishing"?

The ducks were putting their heads down in the water and having the water flow over the top of them.

Lots to see and do around Belvidere!
