A Monday Walk

Yesterday was a great day, sunny and seasonably warm, so naturally, since I had the day off, I went for a walk. I had gotten a coupon for a store called the Country Pantry, which specializes in bulk foods, organic foods, and baking supplies. I decided to make this the focus of my walk, since I wanted to find some rye flour, which no grocery stores in the area seem to carry. The store is in the heart of Mennonite farming country and the walk out along Rowe Rd. is very scenic indeed. I walked back along the railroad tracks which, while not as scenic, was shorter and out of the way of big trucks and other insane drivers. I got nine shots which passed quality control, but I'm not gonna take up that much space here; you can visit the web album to see the whole walk. Below are a few of the shots I like the best. Enjoy!

  4. ...glad you had a warm, sunny day! (Did you find the rye flour?)
    Is that a raven or a crow? I've heard Pennsylvania ravens are rebounding. I've never seen one in Ohio!

  5. Just so everybody knows, that's a Turkey Vulture in flight. Go look at the web album and you'll see another with his bald head showing.

    1. And Kelley, yup, I got the rye flour. There are now 2 small loves of sour pickle rye in the pantry.
