    The ducks were out on my visit to Hauge Homestead Park this morning, Wednesday 12 July 2023. On my…read morewalk in to Silver Laker after parking my car, I spotted a robin foraging in the grass and a hummingbird zipping around at the edge of some trees. A work crew was at the edge of the parking lot. Small wildflowers were in bloom towards the water and ducks were floating and preening themselves near the shore. After a few minutes, a subset of the ducks broke off and paddled towards an area of the water covered with lilypads. It was possible to venture out over the water a little ways on a shorter dock and a taller pier. A foot path past the dock and pier continued on along Silver Lake. The sands of Thornton A. Sullivan Park across the lake were visible from the water's edge. One family of ducks was friendly, with an adult and two young ones coming closer when I waved and said hello. They stayed close to the water, but did waddle around a bit. The adult kept its eye on me, it liked it when I pulled my camera out and it felt like it might have been posing for the pictures I took.

There's a large lawn and a picnic area that's great for the kiddos too! The park leads to the lake, a dock and a trail where you can continue to walk around the lake. It's not too far of a walk, 30 minutes if you're walking slowly like we were. Along the lake we saw people fishing, people walking around the lake and others playing with their dogs in the water (there are signs that say no dogs on beaches and water but I've always seen dogs playing here....) . To walk around you have to walk through some residential areas where you are no longer on a trail around the lake but it's still fun.

    Our adventure finding new parks in the area to frequent continued this past Sunday despite cold and…read morerainy conditions. My children and I were not to be deterred! We drove over to Mill Creek and found Pine Valley Park, which was stunning immediately from the road. There was no parking lot but there was plenty of street parking, so we pulled right up and began our adventure. Right up front is a beautiful playground area, a very sturdy and well-constructed pavilion, and plenty of seating for anybody wishing to watch their children from a comfortable spot. Not too far away was a basketball court and a beautiful field in which to run and play. There was a beautifully paved trail that went all around the outside of the park. And despite the time of year-early March-it was clear that this part was well-manicured and taken care of on a regular basis. Mill Creek parks seem to have so much character to them, and this one was no different. It was exceptionally clean and exceptionally well-kept, with plenty of things for everyone in the family to do. Probably our favorite piece though was the beautiful collection of trees-particularly in the park's center. In fact, we walked over to the circle of trees in the very center of the park and ended up finding a Mill Creek rock! Those who live in the area and frequent Facebook know that these rocks are part of a very humorous and rewarding game that people play with each other in the community. When you find one of these rocks, you take your photo with it and then re-hide it for the next person to find. It's a blast! The bottom line about this park is, even though it's not huge in terms of size, it's huge in terms of spirit. It's beautiful, there's plenty to do, and the people in the area are incredibly friendly as well. Recommended.
