"I take my dog for a walk here everyday and he loves it, running around playing with his ball. In the summer he likes to go into the little stream to cool off, I have lived over this way for most of my life and have had lots of fun in this common going for walks with my friends and climbing trees relaxing in the park here. Very beautiful place have made such happy memories for me and my friends too. Love it!"
