Jesse H. Jones


Jones Park is a large park with many different attractions. They have canoeing and fishing. A pioneer and Indian village are also in the park. I really liked the boardwalk area thru the Cypress swamp. Today the cardinals were all over. We must have seen about 20. The nature center had a neat stamps to identify animal tracks.

Waldemar Park


A small park located between Wilcrest and Kirkwood and Westheimer and Briar Forest. I t only has one toy on the playground but it is a uniquely shaped climbing structure. It almost looks like modern art sculpture. A multicolored sidewalk adds to the artistic feel of the park. A gazebo and walking path around the edge of the park are other features. We thought that the city may be in the process of working on park. We will have to check back on the park. It is on the way to Half Price Books.
