A Walk in the Park

 Turns out, there are still places around town that we haven't been. 

This is Eagle Creek Park...following one of the walking paths along the lake.

Poppy called this one the "Daddy leaf"

 Lovely October Saturday. 

Chilly enough for hats, a thermos of tea, and falling leaves,
but sunny enough to keep us happy.

Autumn suits the little ginger.

The reason this side of the lake is so serene is because it's the bird sanctuary.

Notice the nice flock of white something-or-others behind Poppy and Bry.

The walking path actually cuts through the middle of the lake to section off the protected area, which makes for a very nice view on either side.

This place is less than 10 minutes from our house.
So why in the world haven't we been here before?

We found a quiet little table by the water and have plans for a picnic next.
