The wonderful, long Thanksgiving weekend, somewhat documented

 

I'm doing a bit of a change-up on this blog today. Since this was Thanksgiving weekend and the weather yesterday was so outstanding and, finally, I had more wonderful leisure time on my hands, I took it upon myself to walk from the Plaza up to Loose Park and try to document what a great day it was. This serves three purposes: it shows what we were up to this day, it helps us remember what a great day it was in time to come and, lastly, it gives me photograph-worthy shots, if I'm lucky. Following are the shots I got. I hope you had a terrific holiday and holiday weekend.

 

And of course there were people and families out to feed the ducks at the lagoon.

 

People were all over Loose Park, understandably and as you can see here, I hope. You do have to look rather closely. They were out walking themselves or their dogs, just everything.

 

And there had to be at least one kite-flyer out there and here he was.

 

The jogging trail, of course, around the park. Several people were taking advantage of it and the warm temperatures, of course.

 

Living on the Plaza as I do (hey, it's an affordable apartment, folks), I get to Loose Park fairly frequently, over the years. I have to say, this was absolutely the busiest I've ever seen the playground there--and that's saying something. This doesn't even really show how very busy it was, too, and all the energy that was coming from it.
