Seek and ye shall find

Lived here in Crystal Lake for over 13 years.  You all know I am all over the place just to get the pictures you want to see.  Yet, it boggles my mind the places I still find that I didn't know existed within 10 minutes of my house.  Last night I found another magic place.  A forest preserve that I have passed quite often over the last 13 years that I guess I never looked at the sign on the road saying what it was.  The actual park is tucked back in the woods, but,.....there is a sign.  I checked it out and found it is a wonderful hiking park with several small ponds/lakes for fishing and kayaks/canoes/rowboats only.  Really enjoyed the short time I was there and I would have stayed and checked it out more, but, I quickly realized that where there is a park with trees and water there are many mosquitos, big ones at that.  I'll be back with the kids.

  1. Another great shot. Aren't we lucky to live so close to such beautiful subjects. If you could give me your email address, I have something that I'd like to share with you. I'm at rfblume@tds.net.
