And Memorial Day is a great excuse to take the family to one of El Paso's amazing parks to do just that.

But there's one MASSIVE problem.

And that's the flocks of people at every big park that people typically head to, like Memorial Park.

So below are six smaller parts that I think would be PERFECT for a Memorial Day cookout without the hassle of too many strangers.
