07/31/2010 This was a day of "let's just go do something" Dave-O, Jayk and I did a lot of random stuff, one of which was go to Pioneer park and mess around. Pioneer park is basically 52 acres of red rock to climb and enjoy with your family and friends. They ran all over the place as I took photos. Here is the shot I took near the end of our little adventure there. I just LOVE how you can see kind of the perspective of how little we are in such a big world.
