Full deck

Yes, the slips are full at the Onondaga Lake Marina. This makes for such pretty walks.

Take a rest from that walk

While chronicling activity on the Onondaga Lake Park Shoreline trail as the LPL Walking Club took its paces, I couldn’t help but pull out my iPhone 8 to snap a blog photo of some very busy geese on the grassy slope to the water. One parent, though, found the offspring more ready to rest than…
