I was about to type in a whiny-ass excuse about how I am doing a Waste Not Want Not Wednesday blog post when I remembered: Today is THURSDAY! What a maroon! Well, I already transferred my random pictures from my phone to WordPress, so I am going to make some kind of blog post using them.
I LOVE blooming trees! I want to take down what is left of Frankentree in front of my house and put in one that will look all pretty for a short time in the spring, like this one. When I was younger, I dreamed of getting married in an apple orchard. I forgot all about that when the actual time came, which is just as well, because I would have probably tripped on a fallen branch or had a bird poop on me.
As I took this picture, I thought, “And I’ll take a picture of this random tree,” because I liked it. I was walking around the path at Town of Herkimer Park on Pine Grove Road in East Herkimer, taking a few pictures to accompany my article on the Herkimer Town Board Meeting for Sentinel Media. It is a very nice little park. I may go walk or run that trail again soon.
This Little Free Library is along the trail, too. I love these things. I always look if there is a book I want to read but so far I have not brought any books to leave. However, many of them are quite full already so perhaps I will need to wait for a good chance.
I have been enjoying the nice weather, getting out walking and running a lot, in addition to just being outside when I can, for example when getting pictures for my news writing endeavors. I know I had promised some more Mohawk Valley Adventures, and I hope to get to those soon. In the meantime, thank you for staying tuned.
