Sundays in the Spring Texas Parks
With our weather being near perfect, this is one of my favorite times of year to live in Spring Texas. We have very little rain and low humidity. And the temperatures hover between highs of 75 - 80 degrees with lows of 55 - 60 degrees.
The real estate market is also slower, providing Rick and I an opportunity (ie.. not the usual “don’t have time” excuse) to enjoy the beautiful weather. So with no more excuses, I decided that next Sunday, we were going to have a picnic lunch and enjoy a couple of hours in one of our many Spring Texas parks.
I am ashamed to admit that I drive by our parks numerous times a week but rarely do I make the time to visit them. Well, that has now changed. For the last 3 Sundays we have packed a lunch and headed to a different park in the Spring Texas area. We have picniked at Meyer Park, Collins Park, and now Mercer Arboretum & Botanic Gardens.
With each park containing different amenities, its hard to say which park is the BEST park. I think it really depends upon which activity you want to do at the park.
If I wanted to play or watch soccer, I would definitely choose Meyer Park. Meyer Park has 26 soccer fields and on a Sunday afternoon the fields are a buzz with activity. We did notice that finding a parking spot can be a little challenging during the 2:30 - 3:00 pm time frame which is between soccer games. Meyer Park also has wonderful paved trails for bike riding, roller blading, or just walking your dog.
