Since spring has arrived, the pull to find pretty places to walk has become hard to resist. The other day, we took the very short drive from Mercer County to Day Trip in Grove City.
Although not in the photos, the park also has baseball fields, basketball courts, campgrounds, and playground equipment. A beautiful place to walk or play!
Neshannock Creek is often used for fishing and sometimes canoeing. It runs alongside the Volant Village Shops in nearby Lawrence County, a nice gift-buying day trip with Amish crafts and foods widely available.
When I started researching this area online as a possible settling point after 20 years of military travels, I wished for more photos of the area -- detailed photos to give a good glimpse of actual life, locations, recreation, and a general feel. Now that we've been settled here for over a year, I'm very much enjoying my new home community and decided to add to its internet presence. It's a great get-away place if you love the outdoors and no traffic congestion and mild summers and fairly moderate winters considering we're a northern state.
I may be presumptuous being a relative newcomer and putting up this blog, but I'm a hobbyist photographer and take tons of photos I want to share, and I have family and friends scattered everywhere. Here, they can see where I am and why I'm content with where we've landed.
I also wanted to give the area a louder voice.
Stop back from time to time. If I can wrestle other area photographers, writers, artists into it, this will be a shared project.
