Along the way....

Although the trip south that we recently took was probably possible to be done in one day's drive, we decided to make it a little simpler and stop along the way for an overnight.

It was great to have a reason to spend the night with a college friend.


This is the view down the street.  It is two lanes (one lane in each direction), divided by this wonderful grassy area.


No cars park on the street in front of the houses.  Instead, they use this alleyway to reach their individual parking spaces located behind their homes.


This is a view across to the water where the gazebos are located.  We were able to see some wonderful wildlife on a ride around the area the night before.



We crossed many bridges, of course.  These pictures show two instances why bridges are necessary.
There were times when the water was much closer than this one picture indicates.

I know that some people have a fear of crossing bridges.  I just try not to look downward!:-)

Have a wonderful week!  'Tis the last full one of May already!

  1. That is indeed a wonderful area, although there might be some objections from some people who want to park on the street! I would imagine it's quiet and peaceful there, and that's a good trade-off, in my opinion. I am not fond of bridges, but they are necessary these days, if one is to reach some points of interest. Yes, I try not to look down! LOL
