Frying Pan Park

This one is worth a drive!  Wagon rides, live animals, playgrounds and a small store.  Nice to see the spring baby animals and let your little one run.  Two playground set ups (one for younger kids and one for older children) small seating area to observe.  Small store sells juices, candy and misc (not a lot of snacks).  Lots of parking. Can rent building space.  Has horse back riding lessons available for older children. Has picnic area also.

About Meghan

I like blues, punk, crime drama, mysteries, knitting, science fiction, having boys, and keeping active. I am a cat person, although I think dogs should have equal opportunities. When I'm not here, you'll find me on our main site, or out and about with my kids!
