    This is a top notch park and thank you to Hickory and the Kiwanis for your efforts. When I stopped…read moreby the playground was in full use and I had to wait for the kids to get bored of the awesome slide so that I could get a picture of it without them. On top of that, one of the baseball fields was being used for little league play and they were going all out. The park has two picnic shelters with tables and grills, a tennis court, basketball court, batting cages, restrooms, splashpad and two playgrounds. One of the playgrounds is named after Zahra Baker and I'd suggest you not go look up that name. The park is handicapped accessible including some of the rides. The four baseball fields are lighted. Parking was very limited today with lots of parents bringing their kids and hanging out. I managed to find a legal spot in front of a home on a cross street. Don't block driveways or fire hydrants!

    As far as parks go, this is a full 5- star experience. The play equipment is awesome and every…read moreamenity is provided for. Here's a quick rundown for reference: - newish play structure -epically awesome large slide! -clean restrooms (located near the playground) -sandpit -plenty of shaded picnic areas -Baseball field and tennis court - generous amount of green, grassy area for childhood shenanigans - seasonal splash pad! There are plenty of shaded areas surrounding the park and plenty of parking spaces. This park is not local for us otherwise it would definitely be a part of our weekly park rotation. If you're nearby though and have some rambunctious kiddies, this is the place to take them.

    Has to make a trek out to Bunker Hills Covered Bridge one afternoon recently, to enjoy the fall day…read moreand see on of the last and few remaining covered truss bridges left. Built in 1894 and covered in 1900, this one hundred plus year old landmark sits quietly off in the distance on an off beaten path. There is paved parking close but you must walk in a short distance to see the actual structure. Its covered in graffiti now but still standing, strong timbers and heavy wood beams with a heavy wooden two runner lane path. Its not in service any longer but is still walkable. We stopped and admired this century plus old bridge and then took a slow stroll across it, thinking about all the people from eras long ago that had walked before where we were walking.

The construction is using a unique lattice pattern made of wooden beams. Stretching 85 feet across Lyle Creek, its red, weathered look makes it a beautiful and peaceful place to visit. It is worth a stop if you are in the area, but it is very unfortunate that people have taken something historical to tag it with graffiti over the years.
