Summer breeze, makes me feel fine ….
This was a picture-perfect day with fluffy clouds in the sky, a gentle breeze blowing and finally a weekend devoid of rain or heat and humidity. Yeah! So I decided to take a long-awaited trip to visit Lake Erie Metropark … Continue reading

Look who I found …
… or perhaps I should say found me? Aah, today was like a breath of fresh air after this stifling and sultry weather we’ve had for one solid week. It was a joy to walk again. Just as predicted, last … Continue reading
These days, a walk in the park is …

Meet “Stubby”.
I know I said I had not seen any squirrels lately … and I truly hadn’t, except for the pair of squirrels that were lethargic and lounging around a low branch during that hot spell we had about ten days … Continue reading
Get while the gettin’s good!
Walking needs to be efficient these days. There’s no time for lollygagging or enjoying a leisurely Sunday stroll because, if it hasn’t rained recently, just wait a few minutes as showers or storms are sure to be on the … Continue reading

… as of 6:07 a.m. today. I’m not sure whether to be ecstatic about Summer’s arrival because it seems that our two heat waves, first at Memorial Day, then this past Sunday and Monday, already placed us in quasi-Summer mode … Continue reading
