    This park is THE #1 place to play Community Day in Pokemon Go for most players. There's been…read moremultiple articles written about it for a years now. The spawn rates for Pokemon are very high, lots of PokeStops, and some PokeGymes. You could also play other AR games like Ingress & Harry Potter Wizards Unite. If you are a photographer this is a also a great spot. There's a path, and several benches.

    I have passed by this place at least a few dozen times. Each time I only see a small spot for a few…read morecars and didn't bother to go in any further. Today my boyfriend and I decided to go for a walk and since the last time we passed by there were several Pokéstops and lures going on we thought we could make this a nice fun Friday evening adventure as we have been talking about coming here for some time now but just never made it. The turn into the bigger lot is pretty sharp on the right as you're headed north on Bridge St. There are also a few spots right up front but it's usually occupied, and so was today. We went all the way in and had to come back out because there was no place to park, except a couple of handicap spots. There is also a Yacht club on the far right of the park. The park isn't very big but it's very nicely done. The drought however, along with people walking on the grass, has really damaged the greens turning them tan and dried out. We parked in the side and sat and watched the sunset as I played PokémonGo until a spot opened up. We grabbed it and headed to the park for the walk and the play. It was really beautiful seeing so many people out. We walked alongside the bank of the water and it was low tide so saw the bottoms of the land. The houses across the way was nice too. There were a couple of trails you can walk over to just off the "Kibby's Property" sign but since ITT was getting dark we decided not to go in. And at nighfall, a truck came about starting rounding up the people and lead them out of the park because although it's open year round, it closes at dusk and it was beyond dusk at that point. Best park about this small park is that it had at least about 13 Pokéstops and the lures were going on all of them. Had a great time here and will definitely come back again soon!

    We went to the farm explorers today at 10-11. Cost 30 dollars for 1 adult and 2 children under 3…read more for something that should have been a community event with donations recommended but not necessary. The presentation was nice, but something that should not cost that much. There is no warning not to bring strollers, or wagons for children. If you are not capable of pushing up a long long bumpy trail to get back to your car I don't recommend going. Again nice presentation, great farm, but I would not go again.

    While we didn't go to Weir River Farm today, let me tell you it's worth a visit as it's a 10 acre…read moreworking farm with plenty of well-cared for animals and lots of places to walk around, things to do and learn especially if you care to do some volunteering. A group of friends and I spent a day here not long ago clearing brush. We did a good deed, had fun and got loads of exercise. The barn here is quite impressive too. The walk we took this weekend was at the adjacent Turkey Hill very early morning on this beautiful sunny Easter before heading out to be with other family. There are easily walkable trails and nice views. It was just a pleasure to be here noticing the newly greening bushes and trees and enjoying some quiet time outdoors. Hub, our dog and I all had a really energizing, pleasant morning. It was the church of the outdoors we decided to attend for our services today. I love feeling such joy at being outdoors on a great spring day. Both of these place are local properties owned by the Trustees of the Reservations. We're lucky that there are many of these properties in these parts. I can't urge you enough to become an annual Trustees member and support the great things they do like perserving these open and special places and spaces. There are Trustees owned properties throughout the entire Commonwealth so you'll have plenty of places to explore, mostly for free with your card.
