Busy Park

I choose my location to take field notes to be a park. I chose this location because hopefully there will be many different types of people that come to the park at the same time I do. Hopefully there will be a lot of different activities as well.

            I’m observing the park and see many people here. There is a little kid’s soccer team practicing on one side of the park. A few of the parents are watching the kids practice. There is four boys on the swings. They seem to be swinging to see which one of them swings the highest. A girl and her dog just arrived at the far end of the park. They seem to be walking laps around the park. More parents have begun to show up because soccer practice is over. Most of the parents left once they got their child. Two kids from the soccer team ran to the playground. They started playing together. The four boys playing on the swings began walking home. A boy and his father arrived and began to play catch with a baseball and gloves. The girl walking her dog left. The parents of the two children that were playing soccer finally showed up for their kids. An old lady showed up and it looks like she is feeding the birds. The man and his son started another baseball drill, hitting off the tee. The old lady left after she was done feeding the birds. It is beginning to get dark. Most of the people that were here decided to leave once it got dark. A boy and girl walked to center of the park once everyone left and laid down in the grass. My guess is that they started star gazing. I'm glad I chose this park for my location.
