Eugene Park Tour: Candlelight Park

When I was ailing with shingles last month, and going a little stir crazy, Dale took me on a short ride on an overcast afternoon to visit a local park. 


We've driven by Candlelight Park at least 150 times since moving to Oregon. We pass this neighborhood park on our way to the grocery store. Until this drive, we hadn't realized how big the park is.


The playground is a decent size, but only a minor portion of the park. There are also three full-size soccer fields. But the biggest draw is the dog park. It's huge. 


There appears to be three different enclosures, each with tables and chairs for the humans while the dogs have free reign. It's a very busy dog park. We thought the dog enclosures were the only part of the park. Because we don't have a dog, we had not checked this park out until now.

This fellow is having a good time sniffing around the edges.

I needed to stay in the car on this visit (thus, the fuzzy photos). We're looking forward to returning for a walkabout.
