It is still gated and I only had to go by and close the gate once so, for the most part, people are doing a good job of keeping that secure.

Gahagan Park has quickly become one of my favorite places to walk. Since the beginning of the…read moreCoronavirus, I've been staying with my boyfriend in Lincolnville. I have been trying to go on a walk every day. Most days, I just walk around his neighborhood. However, I was excited when I heard the parks reopened. I made a venture to Gahagan Park the first time almost on accident. I needed somewhere to go to get signal, as I don't get good phone service in Lincolnville. So I went to Gahagan Park for the phone signal, but after my virtual appointment, I decided to walk around this park. I found a track wrapping around a football field. I headed towards this because I assumed this would be the best place for walking. I passed a few baseball fields on my way. When I got to the track and started to walk around, I noticed that part of the track veers off. I followed this path to see where it lead. It went by some more baseball fields. It also lead to some public bathrooms and a picnic area. At the end of this walking trail, there is a graveyard. It is fenced in, and I couldn't get in. This is the point where I turn around, as the park ends and the walking path turns into a road. I like coming to Gahagan Park for my daily walks. I have a friend who plays ultimate frisbee here! This is a cool, fun, and relatively safe place to hang out. I definitely recommend checking it out!

I usually call it the "Summerville Square"…read more(not sure if that's the official name), but right in the heart of historic Summerville, local small businesses set up festive Christmas displays, and it's always so nice to see. Our favorite tradition is grabbing something hot to drink and taking Luna for a walk through the area to check everything out. The displays change every year, which keeps it feeling special and worth revisiting. There's usually a Santa's sleigh where we grab a photo, and of course the big star display--people are always impressed that we can take Luna off leash to pose for pictures and that she stays perfectly focused, even with all the noise, crowds, and activity around her. It's a great reminder of how important proper pet training is. Luna can tune everything else out and stay locked in on her commands, no matter the setting. And honestly, this is achievable with any dog--regardless of age or breed--with consistency, patience, and training (which often has more to do with the human than the dog). Such a festive, feel-good spot and a wonderful way to support the local community during the holidays.
