If you haven’t gone and played in them yet. Go do it now
because they are going away forever. I just got done talking with a French Park
employee who told me the playground is being completely torn out and replaced.
I have been worried about this for a while as I watched some of the ropes start
to fray and the jimmy-rigging that the maintenance guys were doing to keep the
nets alive. One time I talked with a maintenance guy as he told me that he
didn’t expect the part to last another 5 years, and he was right. Here were are
just a few months from removal. It will be sad to see the playground go.
Ever since I moved here it has always been a fun place to go and now with kids
of my own I love to watch them run around and play spiderman games as they
crawl through the nets. The park says they will be putting a new
playground in its place, and I’ve seen the new playgrounds, they’re nice… but
not the same. I love the old fashioned style of the old playgrounds.
And on a personal note it is the end of another era, as I
have just recently moved away from Plymouth.
It’s like they say: All good things must come to an end. So
it is with bittersweetness I put a final posting up onto “Things to do in
Plymouth MN”. A new job has caused our family to relocate to Phoenix, AZ. It
has been a great run for me in Plymouth. Plymouth has been home base for me
from 1996 to 2016. I have enjoyed creating this blog and sharing many of the
things I find fun about the area. While each activity I posted up here has been
something I loved I’ll leave you with my top 5, and I’ll leave this blog online
for the benefit of those searching for fun in Plymouth.
