Back in the land of pines and lakes

July 31, 2022Camping, Hiking, Lakes, Landscape, TreesJonathan

Tall skinny pine trees grow from a bog at the edge of a lake, below a partly cloudy sky.

I spent last week on a camping vacation in northern Wisconsin. Wish I could’ve brought some of the fresh, pine scented air back home with me.

Railing toward sunset

Railroad tracks leading off into the distance reflecting the late-day sun. In the background are trees, clouds in the sky, and the sun, which is low in the sky.

In a wild state

July 23, 2022Flowers, QuotesJonathan

A meadow of yellow wildflowers with dark brown heads.

“I should be glad if all the meadows on the earth were left in a wild state, if that were the consequence of men’s beginning to redeem themselves.”
   – Henry David Thoreau

Tenney Park sunsets

July 13, 2022Bicycling, Landscape, SkyJonathan

Puffy purple and blue clouds above an orange colored sky with the sun just above the horizon over a lake. Trees and several people watching are in silhouette along the shore.

There’s no better way to end a summer day than with a bike ride over to Tenney Park to watch the sun go down. I always enjoy being out on my bicycle, but it’s extra special when the the sky over Lake Mendota decides to reward me with a nice light show.
