Check out all of the San Antonio parks we’ve visited this year as part of our #SA2020Resolutions.

 

Park #20 presented something no other park before it had: a feeling of pressure. Picking just the right park for #20 seemed like a big deal.

While doing a quick search using the cool, just-launched San Antonio Parks and Recreation Department’s Find A Park search tool, we reviewed a list of local parks offering playgrounds. Comanche Lookout Park grabbed my attention because we’d visited this park briefly a few years ago while making a trip to the adjacent Semmes Branch Library. I’d always wanted to go back to check it out.
