Water Wheel House In Como Park

This water wheel house, built in 1951 at Como Park can be found in the bird yard. I absolutely love the rust colored stone walls. Como Park has been around since 1897 and is a publicly funded park, though it survives by donations from the users of the park and local companies who donate.

A Little Farther Down The Line

From yesterday's comments, Keropok Man said it would be a nice place to sit and do nothing. How true it is, there are a few benches to sit and enjoy the view. You can see one across the water, there is also a bench behind me where I took this photo from. The city turned this area into a nice place to sit and think.

Set Adrift On A Memory Bliss

This area, as nice as it looks, is really just a holding pond for when it rains heavy in Cottage Grove. It does make for a great reflective image for the camera. If you look closely, in the distance, there are telephone poles that travel along the road. Trust me, it is there.

Flash Before My Eyes....

I made a quick stop in Cottage Grove to a small park along 70th street. I'd been wanting to stop there for a few photo ideas. While walking to my destination, I noticed this bench illuminated by the low setting sun, it looked "electric".

LOTR: The Two Towers

Sorry to say, this is not the two towers from the Lord Of The Rings series. Instead, these two towers can be found on Harriot Island across the Mississippi River from downtown St Paul. This is a new addition to the park where summer concerts are held.
