Childhood In The Park

Bright, shiny, sunny morning. Children laughing, playing, running at the park right across the street from where I lived. Me in my room moping around with nothing to do. Even my brothers sitting around looking bored. It was around 10:30, and it had probably been the sixth time my brothers played chess. My parents in the living room talking, watching TV, sitting on the couch also with nothing to do. My parents didn’t have work that day which was rare because they’re used to working everyday even weekends and holidays. My mother suggested we go shopping, but my brothers had other ideas. They wanted to go the park, so we did. Everyone jumped op all excited, got ready and left. We arrived and man was it hot. The sun shining a lot more brighter than it seemed when looking out the windows from my house this morning. Also the heat waves coming it, no cool air to save us from the sticky, uncomfortable, warm weather. It was so uncomfortably hot, it had to be like 300 degrees out! As it we went to the park, we could smell hot dogs and hamburgers cooking, kids lining up to grab a bite, kids and their families coming up different activities and games to play. It looked like a very fun neighborhood barbeque. Our family joined the fun and definitely had a blast at that barbeque.
