Morning Walk

I wish I had a better camera. (It would help if I'd quit dropping them!) But here's a picture of the little fishing pond at Ballard Nature Center. 

If you're in the area, I encourage you to explore the trails. And if you can, please toss a few dollars their way. It is such a lovely place and so well maintained. 

Visit the  Ballard Nature Center website to make a donation. 

Ballard Nature Center

With everything going on, finding a little normalcy is nice. One thing we've been doing is walking the trails at the Nature Center. The Visitors' Center is closed, of course, but the trails are all open. There are pavilions and picnic tables, also. We usually go early and we've seen a number of deer, lots and lots of rabbits, and this morning we spotted a doe with her fawn and a raccoon getting a drink. This is a wonderful part of our community, so if you can toss them a couple of dollars, there is a donate button on their website.

Luke's and Whistlestop

The fence is down and tents and tables are set up. I'm assuming it's a shared space between the two bars.

Sign of the Times-- At the Park

Reflecting the world at large at the moment, the parks are still open for walking, but the play equipment is temporarily taped off. It's an odd thing to see.

What's New?

Altamont is getting a truck stop. It won't be large because of the space allotted, but I've heard there will be a Starbucks and a Pizza Express.  

For reference, It's where Stuckey's used to be. The old sign still stands.
