A Tale of A Multicultural Family........................Life As We Know It

Oct. 28, 2008 - 2 parks, a plantation, & pumpkin donuts

It was such beautiful weather this past weekend. Sunshine, low 70s, light breeze... Gorgeous. Sunday, the kids and I went to Cherokee Park to play on the playground...then we walked around and collected leaves. They have great maples and poplars there which have bright red & orange leaves this time of year. Then we went by the historic Farmington Plantation. Didn't take the tour...they charge too much. But we were able to drive by and check out the houses. It's claim to fame is that it was lived in by the Speed family, who were friends with Abraham Lincoln. Then we stopped by Dunkin Donuts and everyone got a pumpkin doughnut. We then went to Iroquois Park and drove to the top of the hill to check out the view of the city. Our first time up there...the kids decided we needed to go back for a picnic.
