Can you tell I love to be outdoors this time of year? So many of my posts over the past few weeks have been based on pictures I've taken outside. lol
I LOVE SPRING!
After a few days of dark and rain, I took advantage of the beautiful sunny weather yesterday and went for a walk at my favorite park, Natirar. I've posted about this lovely park in the past. They have opened a new nature trail, and I brought my camera with me so that you could come along for the walk.
Pictured above is what you see as you get out of your car in the parking lot. Not bad, huh?
Here is the scene as you enter the new nature trail (above). Yes, the grass really is that impossibly green. We had three times the normal rainfall last month in our part of New Jersey, and it is showing. :)
I actually brought my camera because I wanted some sky photos for my 365 blog,
beauty unspoken, but I couldn't resist the beautiful fields and trails, too.
My walk ended next to this picturesque scene of the Raritan River. I hope you enjoyed coming along with me. For more information on Natirar, please visit this website.
I am linking this post to Outdoor Wednesday at Susan's beautiful blog, A Southern Daydreamer. There are some wonderful links this week -- go check it out! :)

Wow! I love the brilliant blue sky as well! Great spring shots. Such traquility! It is impossibilly green here in Connecticut too. I think the rain has been a blessing in that way.
ReplyDeleteI knew this was going to be a feast for the eyes so I made sure to grab my coffee before I really sat down to it. :)
ReplyDeleteEverything in the spring seems so bright and fresh! Like the sky is more blue, the clouds more white, the grass more green. We had a rare patch of sunshine the other day and I ran outside to take a photo because our grass looked impossibly green too - love it!
Just had to check in I knew your post would be beautiful and I'm not disappointed! Have a great day! Julie
ReplyDeleteSO beautiful! ♥
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I really like the one of the water. I also love Spring (except for the storms).
ReplyDeleteLovely, lovely part, Mary. You took some really great shots. Please come by my blog and visit any time you have a free moment. Sincerely, Susan
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love being outside this time of year too. If I had a choice between housework and gardening, I'd definitely take the latter. :0)
ReplyDeleteWow, so beautiful! Not a bad place to go for a walk. The pictures also go well with your music. Carla

Beautiful;)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Mary. My favorite is the one near the river. I love to paint, not too good at it yet, water scenes and trees and mountains. It had rained here for 3 days. Had sun today but sure windy. Enjoy the spring.

Just stopped by to say hi to my first blogger buddy! Odd to see pictures from outside instead of treasures you are usually collecting!! Love the spring time in the east and the historic houses! Beautiful pics (as always!!)
ReplyDeleteWonderful walk, thanks for taking us along. The sky is beautiful with all the white fluffy clouds. If you have had enough rain, please send it our way, no rain for the whole month of April. Take care.
ReplyDeletethanks, everyone!
ReplyDeleteHi, OneCowgirl! How are you? :)
