    What did you think of this park? Amazing Garden in my opinion!

    What a beautiful park! Thank you for not cutting down the autumn sedum in bloom, the hostas, and the hydrangeas. Hopefully a local garden club might adopt that park and maintain it. Wonderful work Erik.

    This is such a beautiful park! Never expected that to be hidden under all that overgrowth! You did an amazing job, Erik. I hope the residents appreciate what you did. Now the kids and even adults can enjoy a beautiful, safe place, an oasis in the neighborhood. I pray that they would either hire someone to do maintenance, or have a “Park Day” twice a month. If everyone would grab a weed eater, some sandwiches and drinks, show up and clean up. The residents could get to know their neighbors, keep the park safe and clean, and let the kids get to know each other. Oh, by the way, have you been working out? Looking good there. Love your videos! ❤️

      What’s good for the Goose isn’t good for the Gander, don’t you know? People have forgotten these city government employees work for us! Not the other way around. Until people are willing to stand up United together and reclaim there local government- no change will occur. Now is a good time to hold your employees accountable. After all it’s your tax dollars which pay them. Way to go Eric! Good man!

    • @gailatkinson1955

      From some things that were said at the beginning, I got the impression it was a privately owned park run by an organization. It’s privately owned but open to the neighborhood.

      I agree that the benches would look better painted but I bought some paint the other day and about fell out when the gentleman behind the counter gave me the price of 800 dollars. Everything has gone up tremendously price wise since Biden was selected president. It's unreal at the price for everything and anything now days.

Get off your butts and APOLOGIZE to the whole town. Make sure ALL your parks are ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE, EVEN YOU. Eric my friend, this was undoubtedly the most amazing transformation I've ever seen you do. Thank you so much. God Bless you and your family as always. Love and hugs from this east Texas Grandma.
