a walk in the park

I have so enjoyed spending some time on Long Island visiting my parents. Whenever I come back home I always take a walk in Eisenhower Park and visit the Veterans Memorial. This beautiful memorial serves as a tribute to the heroes of Nassau County. I also always go to Jones Beach. That will be the next post.

During my recent trip to New York, specifically, my hometown of East Meadow, on Long Island, I took some time to visit Eisenhower Park. When I was growing up this was known as Salisbury Park, named after the country club that owned the property. This park is actually larger than Central Park in Manhattan. There is a beautiful Veterans Memorial in the park where I took this picture.
