I read about this park on a dating app[2] a long time ago: It's the tiniest park ever, basically just a single lot. There are many potted plants present - presumably tended by neighbors. Across the street from the park you'll see bowls of food and water for neighborhood cats. On my most recent visit, I saw only one cat, who enthusiastically greeted me and gave me a private tour of the park. They led me to a Little Free Library there, and inside were cat treats (and free books, as you usually find inside these libraries, take a look, leave a book). [1] You might even find a kitty. [2] A prospective mentioned this park on their profile, and I was intrigued.

This is my 1600th review (not including updates) in eighteen years, and it has taken me this long…read moreto drop a review for the playground where I've spent most of my days! This review might be a bit of a biased five stars, but it's impossible to rate any lower when it's the playground where I've spent most of my days, and the place that helped me find my love for park life (https://youtu.be/YSuHrTfcikU?si=PrZeWmpeKdccrNoj)! Narberth Park is the first park where I ever swung on a swing and the first park where I got kicked out of for night swinging as a young adult. It's the first place where I developed my love for baseball and hit my first of many RBIs on a field! Narberth Park is the first place I ever experienced fireworks, and my friend's high school metal band was denied a performance during a firework during the '90s despite winning a Battle of the Bands in its gazebo. But since that one oversight, The Narberth Fireworks has evolved into one of the best places to see a neighborhood firework display since it has featured food from the likes of Federal Donuts and Chickie & Pete's and music from the likes of Snacktime and Funkitorium. From sharing many good times with my cousins during summer sports camp to randomly introducing our rescue dog to a camel during one of their outdoor circuses, Narberth Park is a place of many good memories for me. And so long as it's still going strong, I'm destined to enjoy many more!. So even though it took 1600 reviews, I'm happy to include it as part of my Park Life collection on here.

I arrived at the park a few minutes before the event started and was able to experience it's beauty. First, there is no playground or basketball courts, but it is rather more of a community park where people can get together. For example, they had a Little Free Library, benches where people were taking and a large open area where you can have catch! Many kids were having a catch or climbing their large trees. Around the entire park is a long, well-maintained cement trail! It is great to just walk on it and see the beautiful park, which has tons of flowers and statues! You can even use the trail at night as it has lights in it! One statue showed a boy and girl sitting on a bench together. That pretty much represents what the park is! There is also a reflexology walk. Though, you have to take your shoes off to properly use it. The rally itself was very nice and showed hope for America. U.S. Congressman Dwight Evans as well as State Representatives Daylin Leach and Mary Jo Daley spoke! This park is also run by a group called Friend's of Linwood Park who keeps it clean and up to date. They also host tons of events including Movie Nights and a day where exotic animals came! Altogether, this is an amazing park to have fun at!

The Willistown Serpentine Preserve is nextdoor to Natural Lands' Willisbrook Preserve…read more I was introduced to Shagbark Hickory and Willow Oak at this preserve and went straight home to order some of these trees for my home! The trees here are happy and thriving, and the variety is incredible. There was a maple with purplish-green leaves (like a Cherokee tomato skin) that was probably a standard maple but man how cool is that mutation! Lots of blooming rhododendron this time of year, those too are thriving in the shaded underbrush. A Japanese Maple grove was beautifully surreal with soft light green grass growing under the canopy. Someone has to be maintaining this with painstaking work! There were few vines, weeds, or invasive junk trying to crowd this forest. So many beautiful sights, very quiet and peaceful. I saw a Cardinal but not much birdsong, though it was close to dusk. There are some picnic tables, a port-a-potty, and a nice open field. Grass is mowed. Parking is a gravel lot.

It is a really nice little hidden secret in this part of Delco. It's good for running, walking, looking at nature, chatting with friends, or finding a bench and just having a sit. There are also ample trash cans, in the event you take your dog and they decide to go number 2. What's more - it's free.

Cruising by Temple University (complete with marching band and cheerleaders), the Philadelphia Orchestra (complete with tuba players and timpani) and city hall (with hundreds of locals cheering you on) is an absolutely delightful way to experience the city. I had so much fun and can't wait to do it again next year! The course itself is a dream--slightly downhill with almost no turns the entire route. Many personal bests to be achieved here! The crowd support is also amazing. I was shocked at how many people are out there supporting. This year was an absolute downpour yet there were still thousands of friendly supporters almost the entire route. Logistically the race went smoothly. It's very easy to pop on the septa and get to the starting line. Be prepared for a crowded ride, but it's a good natured crowdedness nonetheless. Got on the subway an hour and a half before start time and arrived about an hour early. Didn't experience lines for bathrooms or gear check. Really high energy before the start. I picked a corral that was on the slower side and was passing a ton of people throughout the entire race. I thought this was kind of cool because I felt speedy but for those who want a less crowded experience don't be afraid to estimate your time as a little on the faster side. One negative was the gear check pickup. Definitely a logistical struggle here, I waited about half an hour for my bag but I heard of people waiting over an hour. Consider leaving the gear at home unless really needed. I LOVED how close the end was to the septa station--was back home super fast (thank goodness, because as I mentioned, total downpour)!
