I chose to observe this semester at my local park, Symphony Park in Peabody, Massachusetts. I went there the morning of Monday February 17, 2014. It was about twenty degrees but the sun was shining and the birds were wide awake, chirping away. Fresh air is what I smell and nothing more, I see some snow on the trees but mostly leafs. This is a good sign for no more winter I hope! The playground looks so empty compared to what it normally looks like. Their is too much snow today for their to be a soul here. Most of the time there are some brave souls walking around but nobody in sight today. Snow is all over the swings and slides on the playground which just means there has not been a soul here in a while. Is this how this park is suppose to sound you may ask. No, this is sad to me, I like to see at least some people here, without people it looks too lonely and deserted. A playground should be noisy with kids screaming and balls bouncing. This was a peaceful morning overall but I would have liked to hear some other noise except for the birds chirping.
