My job at the Liverpool Public Library took me to a Pokemon Safari at Onondaga Lake Park this week.
While the patrons chased the little monsters on their smart phones, I chased the best photos I could find. (Videos, too, and I think I came up with a pretty good one riding the conference bike with a crew of Pokemon catchers, posted Friday on our LPL Facebook page, by the way.)
I pulled my iPhone 6 out of my pocket a few times so I could share an image or three here, too, of course.

Here’s how you play it best, demonstrates Dave W.
My colleagues Laurel G, Colin W and Dave W were at there best. They took turns steering the pair of big McKie conference bikes on the laps around the park trail as riders did the “hatch and catch.”
Looking for knowledge.
The third stayed with our pop-up tent, which was filled with brochures and other materials about the library, which is located just a couple of blocks away from the park in the pretty village of Liverpool.
Speaking of beautiful.
Solitude at Onondaga Lake.
I think night nearing is a great time to take photos at Onondaga Lake Park. As I walked out the trail to catch the bikes coming back in, I saw these folks out on a wood jetty. It took my breath away, that moment.
Are you a Pokemon Go player, and if so, what do you like about the game best? If so, do you chase Pokemon in a group with friends, and if so, where do you like to go to find them? Which is your favorite photo, and why?

Evening sky picture was the best Mark. I’m not familiar with Pokemon other than hearing about it daily in conversations around me. It worries me a bit that humans are lead around by other humans. Someone set up the game and determines all the rules and gains and losses. I think I’m getting old and crotchety. 😀

I heard that the Parkway is a great place to catch pokemon. I was at the fair on Sunday and there were Drowzee everywhere!

The Park is loaded with Pokemon, ZP. And the library is surrounded by them as well. We are a PG stop, and our Dinosaur Garden is a gym. Come on by the Liverpool Public Library and catch-and-hatch. 🙂

You were probably on the park bench on the parkway that is usually going back and forth between Team Valor and Team Mystic.

No Pokemon Go for me. I’ll rather have a cat nap and chase mice in my dream. The photo of the Onondaga lake is splendid. A perfect picture of a placid evening. (☆▽☆)
