Boo Rochman Memorial Park

Last Friday, Hayes and I ventured into Carbondale (about 20 minutes from our home and about 5 minutes from Sheldon's work) to visit the medieval park. There is a privately-funded park dedicated to Jeremy "Boo" Rochman by his parents after he was killed in a car accident near the park site.

The park is enclosed in a black wrought iron fence and the castle is the most prominent feature. The castle is filled with turns and twists and even a secret passage way.

Sheldon met us and took a rest on the throne with Hayes inside the castle.

Here is a dragon holding a crystal ball (showing many family picnics in this park in our future). Hayes didn't really like getting to close to it.

Here is a medieval knight up in a tree preying on a jaguar statue below.

This is a great, free family fun spot that I'm sure we will take advantage of on a regular basis.
