Taken at Starved Rock State Park in Oglesby Illinois. The overwhelming geographical feature of the midwest plains is: flat! So, I never get tired of hiking the caverns, paths, and waterfalls of Starved Rock. Hope you can see it some day!
parade again
Thought I would pay a quick visit again to our annual Grundy County Corn Festival Parade before posting some more Fall pictures. This is my youngest son. We have enjoyed watching the hard work, teamwork, and fantastic performances of the high school band that he has been a part of for the past four years. Yup…I am kind of a proud papa. Thanks for stopping by.
fall is great
This was taken during our annual staff advance at Devil’s Lake, Wisconsin. We had a great two days of training, planning, and dreaming. I work with a fantastic team of friends who are also my colleagues. Late October in Wisconsin can be cold, rainy, and harsh, but this day was an absolute gift!
i can do that…i just don’t want to
He certainly looks happy and, considering all that is going on with clowns around here, this is a good thing! Also, full disclosure, I can’t do that.
7 trombones
“Seventy-six trombones led the big parade.”
Well, not quite 76, but I am sure that old Harold Hill would have been really pleased to see the seven trombone players pictured here marching in our county’s annual Corn Festival Parade.
a delight
Isn’t she a delight? Her eyes, her smile, and obvious joy! I don’t know her name, but I saw her at the annual Grundy County Corn Festival Parade, and she stole my heart 🙂
a father’s love
A wonderful moment between a father and his little girl, as the loud sirens of police cars and fire engines approached during our homecoming parade.
hmmmmm….
Would love to walk through that door and see what’s inside one of the wind turbines that you can see in my previous post. Maybe they are not wind turbines after all…maybe they are launch vehicles that will take us straight to……
searching for the wind
For this post: our Midwest sky near Ransom, IL. This is one of the few remaining summer skies around here. Fall is slowly moving in.
and so the day ends
A summer memory from my time in NY back in July.
