Checking out the Parks - St Vital Park


Another beautiful park in Winnipeg. I spent a few hours here on Saturday just playing with my camera and enjoying the beauty that surrounds us. This park looked like a good place for a walk or a picnic. Come and walk with me.


Poison Ivy is a very pretty plant. And even prettier in the fall! I am not even tempted to get close, though. I am intimately familiar with the results of getting too close, and even though the last time I had poison ivy is probably more than 37 years ago, I haven't forgotten.


I love paths... and particularly when the path is strewn with autumn leaves.


This one naked white tree looked so out of place... perhaps like many of us feel now and then.






Did I mention that I love paths...


This particular tree had two such holes in the trunk... very interesting.


Reflections are always pretty... though it would have been nicer if the pond had been a bit cleaner.
