Wandering around the Lakes (March 28, 2021)

Spring is starting to fire up, for certain temperatures are starting to get warmer, though we are still getting a few cooler days with lows in the 30s, but those highs in the upper 60s and lower 70s are pretty nice too. The trees are budding though few of the leaves have come out yet and some flowers are blooming.

I did see this Heron flying today, was a quick photo as I just was able to see him. He landed across the lake and I got a photo of him just below. Unfortunately I was using the slower camera. I like that one because it is lighter and had a really good range of lenses, but not as quick as the Nikon is. 

Saw the turtles getting some sun the day before, the very interesting goose (not sure of the type and have only seen the one here like it) and of course the Canadian Geese at the very bottom of the photos. There will be a slew of baby geese in the next few weeks.

Return to Rising Sun, Indiana (March 16-20, 2021)

We took a four day trip (returned on the 20th) from Rising Sun. This is a favorite place for my wife and me, and we had as usual a great time. On the 16th found my motorcycle was ready at Joe's Cycle, very happy with that (got it a few days later as I post this). Weather was wonderful and fun exploring the little towns in that area and enjoying the beauty of the Ohio River. Looking forward to our next visit there which will hopefully be in the very near future.    

 

Visit to the National Museum of the United States Air Force (March 9, 2021)

Got a lot of photos (as usual) at the museum on this Tuesday. A perfect day as it ended with a motorcycle ride out in the country. This though was earlier in the morning. There were as usual some new sights to see, and some older ones seen in a different way. For instance, the B-17 Memphis Belle was lit up, and that was pretty cool.

They have a number of new displays such as the Space display and a new one on Women in the Air Force.     I got this photo of the F-86 and the Mig-15 at left. Below I have a number of sights around the museum. One of the great things about it due to the sheer size of the number of aircraft and the exhibits there is always something new to see. I never get tired to exploring it, and am happy to share some of the sights with you. Thank you for visiting my page!
