Micke Grove Zoo provides this wonderful little fountain in the bird area. Stop for a moment in time. Relax and enjoy nature. turn off the cell phones and ipods and other mechanisms of interruption and float for a while.
The zoo is just minutes outside of town -- literally, yet the Micke Grove Park provides ample space to play, relax and let go of everyday life. There are wonderful gardens, a historic museum, zoo, rides and lots of space to barbecue, play softball, horshoes, look for crawdads in the stream or just relax on a blanket and watch the squirrels run through the abundance of trees. I haven't yet played the golf course but I hear good things.
No matter what draws us to these kinds of areas, it is just important that we leave our "civilised" lives behind occasionally to slow down and enjoy the people we are with and the lives we are priveleged to lead in this country.
