Susquehanna State Park

By this afternoon Kevin and I were both itching to get out of the house (see why we always end up traveling?  neither one of us can handle more than a few hours in the house before we start to get antsy!).  Since it was only in the 40's, we decided to take a drive through Susquehanna State Park.  It's only a few miles from our condo and we wanted to see what we have to look forward to this summer.  Along the way we spotted these neat tangled looking vines so I made Kevin pull over...





And right beside the vines were these tiny little flowers just starting to bloom on the trees... I love signs of spring... even when it still feels like winter!


When we finally made it to the historic section of the state park, we checked out the neat stone buildings like this one... I loved the detailing on the stone and the doors...


And I found some more pretty flowers


Next we hit the park for a few minutes before wrapping up our trip because Kevin said the word "park" and Kerriann was too smart to let it go... even though it was freezing and she was in her jammies...








We'll definitely be visiting this park again once it warms up!

  3. Pretty photos, especially the pink blossom! I'd love it if you'd share how you got that effect with the shaded corners. Is that the camera or a photoshop-type program?

    Following back. :)
