As you can tell the Romare Bearden Park is my go-to place for photos. I have come to be comfortable with walking around uptown AND bonus points I almost always find free parking at the park. And I mean, look at the cute doggo. He got a splinter in his mouth from the stick and didn’t seem to mind at all!
