They say its nothing compared to central park, but its still pretty big

They say Prospect Park is small compared to Central Park, but it is still huge as hell. Sweeping leaves; sounds easy right? Not at all. Too many roads and to many trees and to top it off  it was chilly that day. On the bright side I got a free bagel and hot chocolate, but I had to work for it. First off I had to carry both a broom and a shovel, which was annoying. Secondly every few minutes I had to switch from broom to shovel because I had to dump all the leaves gathered off the road and onto the dirt. Despite the annoyance of carrying the shovel and broom and having to switch between the two, the paths I had cleaned look nice. Who knew that removing a bunch of leaves and twigs would make a difference. And with the rest of the people helping out we cleaned a bunch of paths. I may have went to that park on that chilly day just so I can have something to write about but I may come back in the future. After all free bagels with cream cheese is what its all about. Well that and helping to make the park a better place is a motivation to go. But its mainly for the free bagels and drinks.
