February sun with the lake view

Good things, too. We haven’t had too many days to cherish a blue sky this month in our part of this planet. Snow, cold. Cold, snow. When I noticed the chance to match the high snow against our lake view with a clear sky this past weekend, I pulled out the good camera on my…

One more lingering look

Thank you for this beauty. No matter the weather, I think before I veer sharply to the left toward my car, I surely am glad that a few-minute drive no matter the season gets me to Onondaga Lake Park and its walking trails.

Toward the usual walk

Way down there. Can I make it down there, to the yellow building and the marina, I thought as the maintenance truck passed me on the path and fingers got colder and colder on this brash winter morning. Nope. Turned around and headed back toward the parking lot.

To the rear

Looking out their back door. I recall peering out the business side of the Salt Museum toward Onondaga Lake when I visited with a patron group during my work days for the nearby library. I liked it. This view too makes me want to return with no work chores to merely listen and learn.

Somebody went to the edge

Step right up. I appreciated seeing the smokestacks churning on the other shore as my fingers grew colder during my Onondaga Lake Park stroll. Somebody needed to take a closer look at what’s going on up close to the frozen water. Not me, not on this day.

Salty invitation

Celebrating the wayback. Back in my days working at the Liverpool Public Library, I joined several groups of our excited patrons visiting the Salt Museum for an outing. I learned a lot about our area’s history while taking photos and videos. When I stroll through the park, I think I should go back as a…

Winter sky

Cold rising. I had to take my gloves off to snap pictures during my morning stroll at nearby Onondaga Lake Park. It was a cold session, indeed.

Finding a frozen lake

Solid. A late February visit to our Onondaga Lake Park found the water frozen clear over to the other side. The park workers were wise enough to close off dock access, warning people not to use it for a launching pad out beyond. It’s been cold, yes, but I don’t think they want to encourage…

Where’s Rocky?

Great cover. I saw two squirrels in my neighbors’ tree, one gray and one black. I do believe I was quick enough to catch them. Yes, up there. They sure have great natural camouflage, though.
