Saturday chores finished, it was time to take a little break, so Bob snapped the leash on Gulliver and we all went to the park to see what was happening along the river. Except for several wedding parties taking pictures, there wasn't much going on, but, with or without much action, it was a beautiful day for a …
Lake Erie Bluffs
Built high on the bluff, overlooking Lake Erie, the new observation tower at Lake Erie Bluffs is drawing large crowds. Knowing that the tower will be crowded on weekends, Bob, Gulliver, and I chose to visit on Thursday morning. It could not have been a more beautiful day. Blue skies and cool temperatures made perfect …
‘Tis the season
In my photographer's mind, summer is the season for photographing dragonflies as they skim through the air over ponds and rivers, but this is what I read when I looked up dragonfly in the dictionary in preparation for writing this post: drag·on·fly ˈdraɡənˌflī/ noun plural noun: dragonflies a fast-flying long-bodied predatory insect with two pairs of large transparent wings that …

Penitentiary Glen
Penitentiary Glen is another of the Lake County MetroParks. I don't go there often because it is on the way out to the Arboretum, which is where I usually end up when I head in that direction; however, it has some good trails. I only had enough energy for a short walk, so the trail …
Is it Spring yet?
Happy Spring, friends! Just a few pictures to show everyone what Spring looked like in northeast Ohio when I took my trail walk in Chagrin River Park yesterday. It definitely didn't look like SPRING, but at least some people were loving one last chance to have fun on the sledding hill. And to be honest, a little …
Celebrating spring!
A week has passed by since I decided to (mostly) post one picture per day until I caught up with my blog posts. Today I am celebrating spring (and the end of my week of posting solitary pictures) by sharing a little gallery. After my morning walk in Chagrin River Park, I decided to go farther afield …
If you had joined me for my walk in the park today…
... You would have met Jessie and Joe. Even though their health, especially Jessie's, has declined since I first met them two years ago, they still take regular walks in the park. When I asked them for this photo opp, Jessie stepped away from the walker she now uses and they moved closer together. One of my joys …

Sun’s up!
I took an early morning walk today. The sun was up but not for long, and I've become a convert! Why in the world have I been lazing in bed until 8 am when I could be up and out by 6:30? I don't have much time for blogging today (I've already used up hours …
A muggy morning walk
Gulliver was my photo assistant again this morning. We didn't go far, just a little less than a mile, but we did see some birds of interest...to me at least. I don't think Gulliver was particularly interested in the birds, although he did show a little interest in the water fountain installed just for all …
