Mueller Lake Park

We went to Mueller Lake Park today. The girls always have a good time there and I like that it's fenced in. There is a lot of street parking and they have a parking lot. The bathrooms have always been clean when I've used them. They have quite a few picnic tables so taking a lunch is pretty easy. If there aren't any picnic tables available, there is a big grassy area where you can sit on a blanket.
The playground is totally fenced in so the kids can't run off into the water! The playground has a smaller playscape for younger kids and then a bigger one for the older kids. There is also a sandbox and several swings. There are quite a few trees, but they aren't huge trees so they don't give that much shade. After playing you can walk down to the water and feed the ducks. I've seen people fly kites in the big grassy area. There is also a great walking path around the whole park so you can get in some exercise too!
The one downside to this park is that the trash cans are outside of the fenced in area. That makes people think they don't need to throw their trash away! We picked up quite a few empty water bottles and other trash so our kids could play. Throw your trash away people!
