Okay, so some might consider this cheating but I don’t because, hey I just had a baby and it’s okay to cut corners a bit and use backlog.

These photos are taken at the same time, same park as these, these and these!

Photo Friday Linn Run

This week we have more nature and landscape photos!

Last Friday, we took a trip to Linn Run. It’s a beautiful state park up in the mountains.

Most of the roads were pretty clear of snow so we made it up there okay. We walked around one trail for a bit, climbing up to a higher trail and then back down. Most of the snow had melted so it was actually pretty muddy!

The water on the river was really high too.

On the other side of the trail there was a pretty waterfall. Sadly, none of the pictures of the actual falls worked out. It was getting dark by then and I was pretty tired so they were all blurry! Oops!
Pictured below is the top of the falls, at the bottom of this little stream is where the falls actually go down. I like this photo.

They also have a little natural spring fed water pump! Yummy clean, fresh water. It was really great to spend some time in the fresh mountain air.

I’ve been to this state park once before years ago. And took some photos then to. It was a completely different time of year but here are 2 photos from last time I was here. Linn Run 2009 1 and Linn Run 2009 2

♥Have a lovely weekend! What are your plans?

Our trip to The New England Aquarium.
It’s small, a lot smaller than the aquarium in Chicago (which is huge), but it’s nice. Very big penguin areas
(i’ll get to real posts soon, i hope, i promise)

Please excuse the not so great photography, I was taking pictures with my mom’s small point and shoot which doesn’t have a manual setting and even with a good camera its hard to take photos through glass into water

shark!

a very long fish

Penguins

a ten legged star fish? not sure the scientific term

a frog

a giant turtle

Jelly Fish and some photos that turned out decently

Road Trip ’09 – Day 1

Kendra Kantor — Sat, 05 Sep 2009 16:26:19 +0000

So we took a two day mini road trip up to New York on our way to Boston to move me in. We visited a few state parks/waterfalls and found out that the roads in New York severely hate us.
After many detours, some signed, some unsigned, and a blocked road or ten we made it to Watkins Glen State Park.

The front of the Park.
Through a little cave,up some stairs and across a bridge.

The first waterfall right after the bridge

Some stairs

Some flowers

Tallest waterfall in the park

You could walk under it

More stairs

Scott watching the water

This was one of the smaller falls there but I think it was one of my favorites, I want to climb over and sit on the rocks there.

More Stairs. I think in the whole two days we climbed up 800 stairs and then back down those same 800 stairs. It was insane.

Near the front

More photos of our road trip will be posted soon
