A walk in the park
The following are some of the things we see on our daily walk with the girls through Holiday Park, where we live.
I have to say that we do live in a beautiful area. That Mountain Ash tree is loaded with berries, as are others in the park. Perhaps nature is indicating that it will be a colder winter.
These planters on the corners are new this year.
The tennis/pickle ball court is just beyond that orange car. The adult conversation pool and spa are to the right.
I love these Calla Lilies. Sadly the lady who puts these out every year has sold her site. She took most of them with her.
This entire garden is all herbs that are planted and made available to anyone who might want to use them.
What you see when you first drive into the park. There a chess board on the floor of that gazebo to the left and there are hand carved 3 foot high pieces to play with.
The lap pool, one of three pools, is just behind this area. Volunteers do a lot of work in keeping this place looking spectacular.
Every year the gardens are planted with different flowers so it is always a changing kaleidoscope of color.
By choice my garden has shrunk to plant pots. However I do have my gardens on the Isla to play in. You can see the dark clouds in the horizon and if you look closely to the right of the rain chain you can sheet a sheet of rain pouring down.
About five minutes later we were hit by a wall of rain and strong winds.
The week ahead looks great. Summer has finally arrived.

Nice pics of your park and yes summer has arrived.
It’s nice to see community involvement like that in your park, fresh herbs ready to share is awesome!
Nice looking park, I believe this is the 1st time you’ve showed us…
Crazy weather again, this A.M. at 10 it was 80*..then a storm moved in and down to 60*..Then back up to 85*…
Thanks for the tour.
