Chutes and Ladders

Los Alamos just built a new skate park in front of the public library. There was some controversy over the location, with many vocal opponents at city council meetings. I don't see how it's a bad thing, the Library is close to downtown and across the street from a park. The skaters hardly interrupt anybody.

In any case, we went to play on the adjacent playground, and watched the skaters. For Helena and James, it was the first time we had been to a playground that they could truly appreciate. Helena proved herself to be the more daring, practically diving down the slide. James warmed up to it eventually, but Helenas thoroughly enjoyed herself.

It was a good day.
