New Rocketship Park in PJ 2017

There's a new "Rocketship Park" in Port Jefferson. Kind of a power move by PJ since there was already a "Rocketship Park" in Rocky Point. The new park is really fun and it had a little shade, but it was pretty exposed to the sun and felt like it was for grade school and older kids more than toddler age.

Awesome new rocketship!

Haha, Kevin and Miranda

Pirate ship!

The Roundabout/merry-go-round is back! I thought this toy ended in the 80s.

Afterward, it was so hot, we figured our ice cream would melt so we tried Ralph's Italian Ice for the first time, and oh wow! It was so good!

Strawberry, Mango, and Cherry!
