Friday Of Rest

Since I drew the jury duty card for Friday, I was close to home in Lakewood in the morning, and I walked at Belmar Park before lunch. I was dismissed from an apparent apartment criminal trespass case (we didn't get too many details). Would have been better than a gory week-long murder case, which one of the jurors mentioned they'd been on :\

Baby geese, with parents watching me warily:

Baby ducks (this is about 1/3 of them, who were all diving down into the pond to eat something-or-other):

Walking in a ravine off-trail. Also watching for snakes:

Water trapped in the stem of this giant plant like a Bromeliad.

An unnamed creek flowing through the park:

Grass and sky.

I frequently see photos being take around this pond and the gazebo visible in the back:

Then I worked a half day and made plans for the holiday weekend, had some good beer and posted these photos ;) Better than breaking rocks.
