The Joy of Orange

Except for church, I spent most of my weekend in one park or another. The weather was wonderful and the colors were beautiful. (The weathercasters are hinting at one more warm weekend, which means even more colors.) I’ll forever be grateful for this excellent camera I bought last summer.

Friday evening: South Lake Park in Overland Park, Kansas. I’d be honored if you’d join me next time. It's a pretty place; very popular.

Pretty pictures and pretty girls on an autumn afternoon.

No, it's the sound of the Orange Blossom Special.
