Colvill Universal Playground treated us very well today. Sunshine and a light breeze before Minnesota weather never felt so good.
A few features we LOVED:

- more than five 🦅 bald eagle nests!
- a passenger train passed nearby while we were playing!
- accessible ramps spanned the entire play structure! 🚒The firetruck and pirate ship were accessible as well.
- a handicapped accessible portapotty was available onsite despite April being the off season.
