We recently started exploring the many, many parks that run along the Scioto River. Here are some pictures from a visit a couple of weekends ago. On this particular day it was cooler and the sun would peak through the clouds every so often. It made for fun photo ops.
We began the visit with a small picnic. Vanessa was really only interested in the chips we brought. And she had a hard time picnicking when there was so much to explore!

She finally got to run around but is still carrying the same Dorito . . .
We checked out a couple of boats and threw rocks (more like pebbles, really) in the water. There were no geese or fish or any other wildlife, so I don't think we were harming anything.
Notice the hold I have? She was timid at first but eventually decided she was willing to test the water. I told her it was much too cold. She accepted the excuse.
And we just had to swing in the big kid swing:
When not occupied, the picnic shelters allow for great opportunities to climb and run around:
