Finding my Happy Place

On Friday I decided that the park was my new happy place. We went just after a rain storm and it wasn't crowded at all. There were 2 girls taking their senior pics there, a couple people using the free wi-fi, an older gentleman with a bag full of bread feeding the birds, a family, and us.
I brought two pieces of old bread and we found that there are three families of ducks that have ducklings. There is also a group of teenage ducks (who look like large ducklings). Buddy loved that the birds would come closer to us because we had food. Eventually the geese & some seagulls saw us and came over to wreck the party with the ducks, but we fed them a couple of little bites anyway. I tried to get Buddy to feed the birds but apparently he doesn't understand that you are supposed to throw the piece of bread, not eat it. (Next time I'll bring enough for him and to feed some birds). We also explored the little dock they have and Buddy thought it was cool that the birds could swim underneath us and appear on the other side.
So although we have to drive to get there, I decided that despite the smell of bird feces - the park is going to be where we will go whenever we need a break from life.
