Went For A Walk

I took a walk today at Shannon Springs Park which is a few minutes down the road if driving. There is a small lake there....or maybe it's a large pond and there are tons of birds that live there....ducks, geese and swans. Here are some pictures I took today while walking around there. An arbor of trees
A tiny Island

The weirdest looking tree roots I've ever seen, they grow upwards and out of the water
A bridge that you drive over

There are also lots of playthings at the park. There is playground stuff and a little water park where the water comes squirting out and the kids can play in it. This park is a very peaceful place and with lots of walking trails and lots of birds. Very nice.

    Isn't it great to have a sanctuary within walking distance?

  3. Love the pictures! So soothing to look at! And it's nice to see the duck without them chasing you and nipping at your behind!!
