Nicholson Park. A tiny square of greenery, more like a passageway between two streets. A few trees, a bit of lawn, a paved walk. Nothing more. Housing developments on both sides.
We walk there occasionally, when the weather is not conducive to long hikes. And there is always something to see.
Here are a few photos from last week, a cold, off-and-on rainy day.

Oh, but it was cold! But just across a couple of parking lots is our favourite
Tim Horton's. Coffee, tea, muffins (blueberry).
Warmth, conversation, and then home for supper.
I opened your blog, and saw the snow drops and went Hmmmm! Spring. There are many signs of spring--including no snow removal stuff at our local hardware, just lots and lots of plants and grass stuff. I wasn't ready for spring, BUT now that I have seen the flowers in your park, I can get ready.
ReplyDeleteI love the snowdrops too. I really have to visit the west coast! Spring in February in Canada. Wow.
