Good morning or good evening, wherever you may be, across the nation and across the world. It is just past 5:45 p.m. in "The City", where once again we have no alerts issued by the NWS on what is now and was all day, a sunshiny day. 

The current temperature under partly cloudy skies is 44° with a light wind out of the northeast @ nine mph making it feel more like 40°. The sunset this evening will occur @ 6:42 p.m.

Tomorrow's high will be 44°and the overnight 31° respectively, with the skies mostly cloudy.

Today was a great day to get outdoors for a photo shoot for me and a walk in the woods for Mary and Ginger at one of the Ottawa, County Parks, Pine Bend Park, which has numerous trails, and which is also home to the Weaver House, a wedding and event venue. Mary knew that I needed to get out for more walking, so I grabbed my camera, Mary got Ginger suited up, and we set out. 

Mary finished her previous ear-reading late last night as she cross-stitched and has already downloaded her next selection. Ginger and I watched another rom-com. Of late, we have been enjoying our meals TV free and both of us have been print reading.

But as usual, I have digressed. I took many pictures at Pine Bend Park, which included the surrounding woodlands, Weaver House, and the surrounding out-buildings. Here are some of the shots I captured.

Pine Bend Park is part of the Pigeon River Greenway in Ottawa, County.

This sign denotes the level of difficulty for cross-country skiers, but it also applies to the trails during the warmer months. 

The Weaver House has a large interior and deck for weddings and corporate gatherings. 

On the grounds of the Weaver House, is this smaller building, which is great for wedding photos. 

Pine Bend Park is located adjacent to the Pigeon River.

The sun was shining brightly through the leafless trees.

And in between the pines.

While many pines are present, there are also deciduous trees too. 

Suffice it to say, that Mary and Ginger took one of the trails, while I stayed on the paved areas. I should be good to go for more difficult activities by June.

Tomorrow is a routine day here at the palatial estate. I have a doctor's appointment, but that is the extent of my out of house activities. Mary will be driving me to that doctor's appointment, but otherwise, she wants to stay at home and ear-read and cross-stitch. Nothing wrong with that. Ciao.
