Something Very Special Just Outside the Neighborhood

Looking for a nice walk or bike ride.  Try a stroll along Prowell Drive (just across Orrs Bridge Rd from the entrance to Lamp Post Lane).  What were once "summer getaway cottages" are now permanent residences - still retaining their old charm.  Ahh - life along the creek!!

And now there's another reason to visit. Stroll to the end of Prowell Drive and you'll come upon a Memorial Garden that has been created to honor loved ones who played important roles in our lives. Its beautiful setting along the creek is a fitting tribute.  The Garden can also be reached by a short walk downstream from the Rotary Club Park.  If you've never visited the Rotary Club Park along Orrs Bridge Rd., stop in sometime. Nestled in along the creek, this shaded area is great for relaxing or taking a stroll along the beautiful creek.

So - get out and explore!  It's amazing what lies just beyond our front doors.

More information about the Memorial Garden and the organization behind its creation can be found at http://www.passionformothersflowers.com/.

He's (she?) Back - Bald Eagle 8:30 am 6/17/10

Heard crazy bird noise out back this morning. Looked out to see two crows harrassing the bald eagle in flight. What can they be thinking? That bad boy is at least 3 to 4 times their size..........

Eagle's Dinner 6/16/10

Early evening sighting of younger bald eagle (some dark markings still evident on its head). Caught 3 fish and dined across the creek from my backyard on Lamp Post Lane (Hampden Twp - off Orrs Bridge Rd). 2nd sighting in the last couple of weeks. Quality of pic is a bit lacking - need a higher powered telephoto.
