Roof tops and Side WalksPosted by: Chris dlgr in Almanac, Lancaster, Pictures, city, heritage, nature, transportationI love the idea of taking sky line pictures here in Lancaster. This town’s colonial heritages and need for progress have often been at odds in my minds of its citizens and politicians in the past. They are more at peacefully state of co-existing today. Just the same, Lancaster abundance of trees have co-existed with its asphalt and brick architectural changes. ~ ~ Along The Brick and occasionally slate sidewalks of Downtown Plan and trees peacefully coexist. ` ` (right) is near The Central Market. ` (Below) A Tree has lived its life on Duke St. ` ~ (below) the new convention center sneaks out of the Shadows of a Church Steeple. The R.R.T.A terminal from above. I think thank could use a little more landscaping. Cheers! ~
Sunday was such A nice morning. Especially if you are a sports fan in Pennsylvania…The weather:sixty degrees in October. I love this time of year… the tree changes.
It appears I was not the only one out enjoy the nice weather.

Garden of the five cents (senses)Posted by: Chris dlgr in Almanac, Pictures, city, life, nature, parkPrices at the gas pumps rising… inflation. does anybody have money really to travel for vacation? So its time to adapt. And do a vacation of exploring our local communities. Their is plenty to do around lancaster, we plenty of parks. The Lancaster County Park is partly in the city limits. So today I visited the park and snapped some photos at “Garden of Five Senses”. I grew up a dirt poor kid in Lancaster. So I have been visiting the parks and fished the Contestoga river.I do not worry when the money belt gets a little tight, pertaining to vacation. I been through it many times before. Visiting the Park, and the Garden of five senses is free. Its great for couples are kids, and no need for big plans to visit. Hard to believe these Eastern Pines Grow in the city limits. I wish i could upload the Smells and odors of this garden. too bad i cannot find the right file format. Plenty of signs that explain the natural history and life in The Garden of Five Senses. The one on the left is in braille for the vision impaired. I love to hear the water move in the garden. this is a pond right in the middle. With no money to travel, we mind as well see how nature flowers in flows at home! Start Gallery Slide Show
