Mother’s Day marsh meander.
Sunday, May 11, 2025 was a gorgeous day and I took advantage of the sunny morning when I set out on a very long walk at Lake Erie Metropark. It was picture-perfect, not only for me, but also for all … Continue reading

Pollinator Pals.
It was July 24, 2025 when I took this stroll at Heritage Park. I was double-dipping, picture-wise, because my purpose for being at this venue that day was to walk and take photos for my virtual 5K “Running to Honor” … Continue reading

A gull, er … girl can dream, right?
