Great Things Come In Small Packages
Tricity Park is a city park located on the boarder of Placentia and Brea. My two year old son, Leland, and I try to go to the park every Friday to get our daily dose of vitamin D and to burn off some energy before nap time. The main entrance is marked with a sign with the words “Tricity Park” burned into the wood planks. A fork in the road forces a decision, go left to the playground or right a secluded parking lot; I always turn left. In the center of the park is a big lake, asphalt paths loop around it connecting the small crowded parking lots. With every visit, I am guaranteed to find kids enjoying the well-built outdoor play area, families feeding the ducks and geese, retired men relaxing in the shade with their fishing rods, and a unique and dangerous attribute only found here. Tricity is a fantastic place to spend the day outdoors without driving too far.
My favorite parking lot is the one directly adjacent to the playground. Cars lucky
