Carousel Park

What I love about Carousel Park is that it offers something different. This unique park is tucked in along a busy road in the Newark/Wilmington area and I’ve driven past it a ton of times and hesitated to check it out because my initial thought was that it was only for horse people. Boy, was […]

Fairmount Park- Centennial Arboretum

Fairmount Park- Centennial Arboretum

May 29, 2021 By Becca Leave a Comment

What kind of mental picture do you get when you think of Philadelphia? Big cities are such a juxtaposition between beauty and filth in my personal opinion. Everywhere you look there are piles of trash, graffiti, and dilapidated buildings. Philly has more than its' fair share of those things BUT it … [Read More...]
