Here's some history for you about this park, that isn't in the history books... My husband and I call this "marry me park." When he first asked me to marry him, and I said yes, we didn't have a ring. So months later, we got a ring and he decided to make it more official...on one knee and everything. Hence the secret name of this park. I thought about, as a joke saying "no" -- but then we'd probably have a different name for the park. Like..."you're a jerk park," or something like that. So, it's still "marry me park" with some great memories.
Kat, that is awesome, and makes this whole park project worthwhile!
Thanks for sharing.
What a great story, Kat.
Ben, your photos of these signs make me look at them more closely than I ever have. This is a great project.
I drive by this park sign most days, and am always enthralled by it. I wonder if the children from nearby Sequoyah school painted the tiles?
great question - I really like the night and day theme.
