After the rain

For some reason Gizzy woke me up early today wanting to go outside and since I've got errands this afternoon, I got myself up and Adam to go to the park. After buying a big cup of java, I headed towards Roquemore Park with my boy for a stroll through the park. It rained yesterday afternoon and intermittently during the night, so it was quite wet and beads of water were clinging to everything like morning dew.

First stop:  the roses!
While looking into the water at some garbage trying to figure out how to get it out, I saw a teeny, tiny baby turtle...actually, there were a few, but this one is the one I got for you:
Past some trees and a cute little birdhouse (don't know if it was occupied)


Around the bend and over the lawn, sniffing along some flowers and ye ole millstones (on Gizzy's part)


we met up with Gizzy's rumbling parter who was anxiously waiting by the fence - have at it, boys!

That was fun and now for some relaxation by looking up into a few remaining spring blossoms

Then further around the pond, past some more trees - be careful, Gizzy, don't fall in!



 past the little bridge and back into the car to drive back home...


Till next time - have a good day!

  6. Hi Doris, I love your walks, they are always so pretty!
    Don't worry about Lilly, she is fine. She is my "crazy cat", always knocking things over, looking angry all the time, she has a 15 year old girl attitude....I can say that with love because of my daughter and when she was 15! LOL
    Thanks for caring, I really appreciate that!
