Its suce a great thing because it gets people thinking about using it. And if its there then its a great motivation..because you dont have to pay for it or anything...The only problem is that you get kids coming over and you get all embarrased...But im going tomrrow..early in the morning when the kids are in school so i can do my full workout HAHAbunnyfuzzyness wrote:that is very nice!!!Its sure is...Im still getting over the shockUrsula wrote:In Spain we have a lot of gyms like that (in the cities where I used to live).

Guest Guest Posted June 17, 2010 That is wicked cool!!!! I've never seen a Gym in a Park before. I've never seen a Gym outdoors before. I'm from Canada, and I don't think we have any in all of Canada! It would be soooo cool if we did! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Guest Posted June 17, 2010 as for vandals.. i hate them too. i respect graffiti and stuff, but i hate it when it's done wrongly for the wrong reasons in the wrong places (and when people do it ugly lmao)and yeah i really hate the ones that just break stuff for no reason.. i live in an apartment complex and the elevator walls would have holes on them randomly and the pushpin boards to post notices would be torn apart amongst other things. i actually knew most of the kids there so i prob knew who did it, but we were liek 10. i didn't do anything but they probably did. luckily we all grew up and most of the kids moved out so there's been less vandalism in the complex...outside from here? this is LA.. everything gets vandalized.
