box sledding


Today I'm linking up with Deign Mom for Love Where You Live. 

And love it I do. 

One of my favorite things about living in Arkansas is that for the better part of the year it is nice enough to be outdoors.



We have great splash pads, playgrounds, bike paths, lakes, bridges, and hills in Little Rock.

A favorite spot for our family and a spot I love for photography is the lawn of the Clinton Presidential Library.


This lawn is a great jumping off point for a few great local, outdoor activities.
 There are a couple of excellent sledding hills and since we don't get much snow in Arkansas we started taking cardboard boxes there for Box Sledding.

Now we do this a few times a year and we almost always make a trip to do this when our Chicago cousins are in town.
We also enjoy walking on the Clinton Presidential Park Bridge.

It was renovated just last year from a railroad bridge into a pedestrian bridge.  Enjoy trying to find your first name in the dedications all along the walkway.  Or keep an eye out for the changing flowers planted all along the railings.  Also, the views of downtown Little Rock and the Arkansas River are stunning.



We always enjoy a trip to this part of our city.  We ended this fun day with a bread and cheese picnic on the lawn of the library.

What a great way to get sledding in the summer. We used to use cardboard in the winter on snow if we didn't have a toboggan or sled, but I've never done it in the summer.

Loved your photos...and the box sledding looks real fun! Much warmer than snow.
