A Walk in the Park

OUR DOG FRIENDLY PARK

A walk in the park is a peaceful idea...evoking Monet paintings...when used as an idiomatic expression it conveys an unexpectedly easy activity...for an official definition...see link

LIAM ON THE SIGN!

Our place for a walk in the park is across the street-Town of North Hempstead's Tully Park.  

                                                           DOGS ARE WELCOME

Liam and I go in regularly. But our walk is more like a Van Gogh, a twirly trip... 
a walk on the wild side
Come with us...here we go!

zig,

up

down

"Hey Liam, wait up"

LIAM

only his tail makes it in the 
shot

OUR HOUSE, LIAM'S TAIL IN CENTER POINTS TO IT

        We discover a lake! A high fence keeping us away...down far below...a gift on our journey

A LAKE? RESERVOIR?

we are told it is a sump...water pooling at a lower level...a sump is?

It has waves and a shore and a path to its beach strewn with evidence of off hours partying...appealing detritus for Liam.

SUMP VIEW, LIAM'S LEVEL

We look at our map (see screenshot following) to find out sump's name or verification it is a sump. Nothing annotated. Yet its blue is the hue of our photo and exactly where we come upon it on our walk on the northern perimeter of the green patch, our Park. 

trees

birds 

sun

shadows

and the tree trunks

hundreds of scents

COME ON MOM,  LET'S GO

whew...

we both are wiped after our walk in the park

A posing Paul parent

and it is done. Pausing to reflect

LIAM DREAMING OF THE NEXT TIME

BACK HOME WE GO

Woof, Woof
