Enjoying East Cobb Park on a beautiful Sunday afternoon

East Cobb Park

I got really lucky Sunday afternoon finding a parking space in front of East Cobb Park, which was packed with people walking their dogs, tossing around a football, having cookouts, riding swings and just enjoying a sunny January afternoon that nearly reached 70 degrees.

It was the last day of an otherwise soggy and cold holiday season. The sun and warmth will stick around for the first part of the week as Cobb students head back to school, with highs in the 60s.

Toward the end of the week it will start to get colder, with highs in the 40s and lows in the 30s and 20s. The rain returns next weekend.

Before leaving I took a look at the free library box near the front of the park. I had seen it from a distance but for some reason had not been curious to see what books had been left there. You can drop off books for others too.
