    Great playground for the kids. Has a great area for sports like soccer or softball playing. Bathrooms and ample parking available.

    Best walking trail in the area. It's several miles long, fairly flat and decently maintained. Great…read morespace for walking strollers, kids or just with friends. It does get very muddy even a day after a rain, though. The bikers can get a little annoying too. The parking lot can fill up quickly on weekends, but there's plenty of parking on the side street parallel to the trail.

    I rode the trail today from Daniels Farm Road to Benedict's Home and Garden in Monroe. I stopped…read morehere and had to go back because I had no idea where the trail went from here which is my complaint about this trail. It is poorly marked. There is a fork in the trail with a sign that says "Main Street Spur, one way and Spring Hill Road Trail Route" the other way. I took the Main Street route and after about 200 yards I was at the edge of Main Street and I had no idea which way to go as there is no signage at all. I doubled back and took the Spring Hill Road route which took me to Victorinox. Here you either go left or right, again no trail markers. I went right towards Victrinox because it looked like that trail went around the the property but no, I was soon met with a no trespassing sign. So I doubled back again and found the trail again which took me to another trail head with no markings although I did find the Stephen French Store/Post Office marker, but no trail marker as to which way to go. I gambled and went right and found the Stepney Depot marker but no trail marker. I continued north until I came to the Benedict's Home and Garden Center, again which way do I go? Again I gambled and went right to Wolf Park which seemed like a logical way to go, however the park was closed for the Bicentennial?! Again you guessed it no trail marker to be found. I gave up at this point and went back to my truck and went home. Did I miss something? Did I miss all the trail markers? If I did please let me know where they are. Otherwise it was a great ride with some slight inclines and and mostly smooth riding. I would recommend it but be aware there are no obvious trail markers.

    Today, I made a quick trip to Seaside Park Beach because my daughter really wanted to visit the…read morebeach, but I was tight on time. We compromised with a short stroll to the shore and back, just enough to enjoy the fresh air and the view of Long Island Sound. Seaside Park is a local gem with soft sand, big grassy areas for picnics, and scenic walking paths, all designed by the same folks behind Central Park. It has a welcoming historic archway and plenty of space to stretch your legs or just sit and watch the waves. For Bridgeport residents, it's very budget friendly at just $15 for an annual parking sticker. ( I got mine today) Non residents pay more about $35 a day for Connecticut visitors and about $55 for out of state guests. Even though our visit was short and sweet, my daughter was happy just feeling the beach. It's a peaceful spot for a summer afternoon, whether you're in for a long day or just a quick breath of ocean air.

    We stepped off the train at the Bridgeport, CT stop after a long 2 hour train ride from NYC, ready…read moreto see the Red Hot Chili Peppers ROCK Seaside Park, as they were headlining the Sound on Sound Festival. I, for one, will travel embarrassing distances to see them live as we have MAYBE 2 years left before they become a complete shell of themselves. Father time is truly undefeated. After a 1.5 mile journey from the train that involved a few pre-rolls, we arrived at Seaside Park. We were greeted with piles of muddy grass, as there had been a torrential downpour the days before. The skies had profusely cried. I'm talking mud where if you put a decent amount of pressure on your step, your entire foot will be swallowed into the mud. We entered the festival around 5:30, with the chilis set to take the stage at 9:30. None of us really knew the openers, so we went to the GA+ lounge to grab some food and get off our feet for a bit. Oh yeah you read that correctly, we were in GA+ because we are LIKE THAT. Not quite like that enough to be in VIP though, but we workin. VIP lounge coming soon on everything I love. Much to my surprise, the GA+ lounge was beautiful and well set up, as there was ample seating, food trucks, and nice bathroom trailers. We fueled up on brisket sandwiches, fries, beer, a few more pre rolls, and a couple alleged cigarettes and were ready to go to the GA+ viewing section to secure our spots for the Chili's set. As I looked around at the crowd, I realized at 27, I am likely one of the youngest people here and one of the only people of color. Which, when I contemplate it, does make complete sense given the age of the headliners and also given that we are in Bridgeport, CT lol. We caught two openers: Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats and Trey Anastasio Band. Nathaniel & the Night Sweats... I mean first of all what a cool name lol. "& The Night Sweats" really gets me lol idk why. He was a short stocky dude who could really sing and loved to flex how he could play ANY instrument. He went from the electric guitar, to the keyboard, to just vocals, to the acoustic guitar in 4 consecutive songs. He did this little thing with his fist as he was singing, where he would like subtly pump it when there was a drum kick. It was really cute ahahahaha. Overall, he was super entertaining. Trey Anastasio's set just felt extremely uninspired to me, idk. He was RIPPING that guitar in certain stretches, but like my big bro said, it felt like he was just playing in his room. I just didn't feel like the set was well rehearsed, and wasn't entertaining for me. I may get flamed for this, but it felt super geriatric. Just didn't do it for me. RHCP was next, and you could tangibly feel the anticipation from the crowd. It seemed everyone, including myself, came just to see the Chili's. Chad Smith, the drummer, hit the gong at 9:37pm to signal the start of their set. The gong sent chills through my axial skeleton, as it finally set in that I was going to see John Frusciante absolutely SHRED his 1962 Fender Stratocaster live. The intro jam, made up of Flea, Frusciante, and Chad improvising on the spot lasted about 5 minutes, and rolled right into Can't Stop as the first song. This set the tone for the night and had the crowd hooked like...idk I'm struggling to come up with a good metaphor, but we were hooked. I'm biased as I am a die hard Chili's fan, but they are just unbeatable live. They are so connected as a group and this shines through in their live performances. You really forget how many hits they have. Scar Tissue, By the Way, Dani California, Give it Away, etc. Frusciante also always changes his solos live, which keeps the songs fresh and as I imagine it's the only way it makes playing the same songs over and over again bearable lmao. People also SLEEP on their new stuff. Give "Eddie" and "Carry Me Home" an open and honest listen and tell me those aren't phenomenal tracks. After the show, it was an absolute blood bath to get back as the last train left at midnight. Patrons SHOVING to get on the train and when we made it on it was absolutely filled to the brim, people fighting over spots, and it was just a horrendous experience. But, I won't let that over shadow the show and the night overall. All in all, a great night. Thank you Seaside Park. Thank you Sound on Sound. Thank you RHCP. IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov__

    This dog run needs a little TLC and a few upgrades and it could be a good dog run…read more Things it has going for it: - Separate large and small dog runs - Parking on a couple of hundred feet away - Poop bags provided - Plenty of seating (lawn furniture and picnic tables) - Large dog run is a good size run Things it has going against it: - No water - Wood chips mixed with dirt as ground cover - Fencing and gates could be better - Limited shade This runs needs some TLC. The fencing in areas needs to be replaced and the ground cover also gets muddy after a good rain. Upgrade fencing , bring in a dedicated dog drinking fountain and this is a 3 star dog run.

    Just relocated into CT and can say this Dog Park is mediocre at best and needs the city to stand up…read moreand use the fees we pay to fix it..... Voluntary Labor only gets things so far and as this is a city park even an average lawyer could prove the city liable for things..... Fix the gates! The repairs installed are a hazard to Dogs and Kids...., Mow the grounds.... keeps pests down and makes finding dog presents a lot easier than using the bottom of your shoes. Lighting.... Simply replace the burnt out bulbs would help us early AM evening visitors. I thought the area had everything possible and done.... Sad to know dog parks in SD, IL and IA are thousands of times better, have volunteer workers AND use tax funds to maintain safe areas. UPDATE: Apparently you enlightened liberal dog owners have very little knowledge of Kennel Cough and other diseases when your happy that others leave toys and bowls in the park. Many praise it and as one who pays attention will ask those happy with this if they are enlightened enough to believe everyone is vaccinating and caring for their pet as much as you do? I SERIOUSLY DOUBT IT. If your dog gets aggressive... Leash Up and/or Leave! If your dog bites another dog.. exchange info and call the Police so a report is made. I have witnessed TWO events where the aggressive dog owner leaves and says NOTHING as the injured dog owner is attending to their pet. Hey, but I must be the one with the problem here! At least the park people got off their dead behinds and removed the wire below the first gate and mowed. I guess installing new lights to illuminate the park is to much to ask for and expect! Sad that the taxes paid do not cover BASIC maintenance issues to the over paid and under worked park staff.... keep sitting in your vehicles on your phones and we can start documenting your "strenuous" work day for you.... Again.. I will gladly show up and pitch in to help and I do believe it's time to demand the Park Board, Mayor and City Council start getting outside with us and take care of what the taxpayers have purchased BEFORE another item is purchased or leased.....
