Solomon’s Path Playground
I mentioned last week, that my kids and I really like boundless playgrounds. Yes, it’s true, and that is the reason we visited another one this past weekend.

Extra! Extra! Read All (Out and) About It!
We are so excited to tell you that today Out and About Mom is featured in The Glastonbury Citizen newspaper!
