I had a hard time deciding which Fallasburg Park photo to do first because I like them both so much. There were magical teeny little bubbles floating on the water when I took this. By the way, there is a tremendous arts show here in the fall, the Fallasburg Fall Festival that is sponsored by the Lowell Area Arts Council. This year the show will be held on September 29 and 30. Here’s a google map link to the park.
I had intended to post this sooner, but was delayed due to my business trip to Chicago yesterday. Yep, yesterday when I encountered tornadoes and straight line winds, it was very interesting driving. That was one mighty looking storm that packed a powerful punch. I grew up over there and never saw anything like this before.
Anyhoo, this is another view from that pretty little spot along the river in Lowell.
It was a really gloomy overcast day and I was racking my brain to think of where I could get a nice photo and suddenly it came to me, Fallasburg Park in Lowell! (google map link here). And, Bingo! I was right! This place is serene and beautiful. Except for when I was pulling into the park, two gigantua wild turkeys blasted by me and gave me a dirty look. Too bad I didn’t get a record of that.
One more thing, I just want to thank everyone who keeps coming back to see my blog. And I want to thank all the places that have written nice things about my blog and linked to it. I’ll save that for another post, since I want to make sure I don’t leave anyone out and give links. I’m noticing that my visitors keep growing and growing and I appreciate all of you who enjoy making this part of your day. Thank you!
Here’s a peaceful hidden spot along the water in Lowell. Little stairs lead down to a small sitting area along the river at this spot right here (click for google map.)
I took this photo in Lowell late in the day, just as the sun was setting. I was facing main street, with the Lowell Showboat off in the distance. I love the beautiful river running through town and everything that comes with it, like the ducks and riverwalk. When I was taking this photo, there was a cute little girl feeding the ducks, which just made them crazy with joy.
