Memorial Park — Attraction in Maplewood

My go to happy witchy place, when in area! Hug the trees, read, relax under the moon or sun DURING pagan sabbaths & meditate while stargazing. love to see bunny hopping,squirrels eating, hear birds or observe mallards ducks fighting for territory into the vast pond- amazing they are so territorial.

Sitting by the water releases stress, awakens ones SOUL for greater expansion through existence. Play relaxing music of my choice. Sometimes the deer makes a visit at nights with they family- then i say hi & bye.!! wish there were restrooms, so I didn't have to run to Starbucks, full of teenage invasions, trying out new generational drinks😅 DO bring bug spray- sunblock- cause Nats are all over especially after rainy days & spotted ticks.

No!!! so let turtles be turtles so we can enjoy they presence 😉 I love to say hi & thanks to the names on the memorial stones to pay respect to the human-now in spirit- thought about how happy they would be to see they names here, such gentle souls , great reminders of earthly...

This is a great park, in a great town. It's beautiful, peaceful and can be a nice place just to go and recharge.

There are ball fields and a playground, close proximity to downtown means it's also a nice spot to go for a walk before or after dinner.. Definitely recommend you visit it if...
