Finally Friday - Let's Take A Walk

What do you do with a glorious spring day?  Wear shorts. Apply sunscreen. Head to the Colleyville Nature Center. And explore new paths

The last time we visited this place (only a ten minute drive), Ray was recovering from his knee replacement.  Thus, we only hit a teeny part of the park. 

Oh my goodness. There was a whole big loop of ponds we had missed. This  was a delightful revelation. 

The spring greens are so electric this time of year. 

Nothing like a little bubbling creek over some rocks to add to the atmosphere. 

Get up now from your computer. Get outside. Find a park. Unless you take some photos, put away the phone. Walk, listen for birds, nod to fellow trekkers.  Have a super good Friday and weekend. 
 

Monday Moments - Right Around the Corner

A few Thursdays ago, I drove Ray right around the corner (well, it was a few more streets than that but still super close and tucked in a very fancy neighborhood) to the Colleyville Nature Center. 

I figured he could use some new scenery and at least walk to a bench. He's making super good progress from the knee surgery.  Well, he did walk  a bit on a path and then back to the car.  He rested and I zoomed off for a better look. 

Nifty little paths, some right behind these monster homes. I did not take pics of people's backyards. Trying to respect some privacy. But trust me - Wow!   Instead I peered over the sides of a bridge over a creek. Lovely reflections. 

 Nice little park and so close to us. Once spring emerges, this will be a lovely haven for more walks.

I did get Ray home and he elevated and iced the leg.

(P.S. Now it's two weeks later and he is released to drive!  Not a major road trip, but at least to his rehab.  Hooray)
