It is a pretty nice place, with lots of attractions to play with. Normally, we are there in the winter, and skate on the outdoor ice rink.

A couple of years ago, the Downey&#8217;s took a picture of Adam and Aaron posing like the statues, so we thought we&#8217;d try to recapture the moment, this time with Arianna. You can see that Aaron is just too cool to pose for this.<BR><IMG src=\"http:\/\/images.quickblogcast.com\/74935-65679\/DSCN037401web.JPG\" width=640 border=0><BR>&nbsp;&nbsp; Another attraction we visited was Manitou Park. In the winter, there is a long sled run on a hill. But this summer, we visited the gardens of Manitou Park. There are lots of flowers, trees and bushes&nbsp;there, in all kinds of arrangements. I&#8217;ll let Cyndi post more in greater detail, but I thought I&#8217;d post this picture of Duncan Garden, with the kids posed for perspective.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp; At the bottom of the steps are two posts, so after we walked around for a while, we came back up the steps towards the conservatory, and Aaron decided to pose as a lion, and Adam matched him. I think this says a lot about Aaron&#8217;s personality&#8230;reminds of how Snoopy liked to pose as a vulture.<BR><IMG src=\"http:\/\/images.quickblogcast.com\/74935-65679\/DSCN039201web.JPG\" width=640 border=0><BR>Lions<BR><IMG src=\"http:\/\/images.quickblogcast.com\/74935-65679\/DSCN039301web.JPG\" width=640 border=0><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;&nbsp; One of the days we were in Spokane, we went downtown to Riverside Park.
