a quick tour around the yard here before we head out for our drive...
got another rainy day here, but a little warmer...
and no wind...
tolerable...
and not so bad to be out in...
columbine...
this is up by the rail road...
I have seen a couple of bunnies up this way in the last couple weeks...
robin...
and then we headed for Walnut Point State Park...
its 3 miles north of us...
we used to camp here a lot...
and just go out and fish or picnic...
the boys were raised out here...
its very peaceful...
a hawk...
its full of wildlife...
and people who just enjoy the tranquility of the place...
boats the concession used to rent out...
more canadian geese...
the concession stand is closed this year...
needs a new roof and major repair...
the state is broke and almost closed this place down...
it now has one park ranger working it...
but still no one to come in and operate the concession...
and the dogwood are beginning to bloom...
a sure sign of spring...
;)
Beautiful photos. I think my dogwood had about 6 blooms this year.
ReplyDeleteIt appears you have had a good Sunday outing. The same thing seems to be happening to other states with their funds for their state parks. Sad development.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your pictures. Our columbine has been blooming for several days. We are a bit ahead in our growing season.
I just love it that you two take rides together just to capture moments in the day, Tete. :) Time together like that is so very special! :)
