Reflections on a Beautiful Day

On one of the beautiful days we had this week, GMG Jimmy and I headed over to the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary.  Apparently we were not the only ones in the region to do the same thing and they turned us away because the lots was full.  Not to be deterred in our hunt for wildlife and/or scenic pictures on a gorgeous day, GMG Jimmy set out to find us some beauty.

We found the Bradley Palmer State Park nearby and pulled in.  Though we were delighted that the parking was free, we were a tad concerned about the number of people saddling up their horses for a ride.  It felt as though we should have brought one along with us so we could fit in better.

Again, of course, we were not the only ones seeking to enjoy the temperatures and the sunshine.  Kids on bikes, walkers, runners, and the aforementioned horses were all out to revel in the day.  Wildlife took a hike themselves and we didn’t see any.

But we did see some pretty neat reflections and shadows. We were a little surprised to see ice still covering the water.  Except for the texting teenagers, it felt a little primeval.

    Simply Red – Wave The Old World Goodbye

    Wave the Old World Goodbye
    Simply Red

    Wave the Old World goodbye
    It’s time to say hello to the New World
    Praying it will be right
    That the world may soon see the light
    I’ll be waving, oh waving

    And I’ll be waiting
    Sure the old folks have tried
    But now it’s time for us in the New World
    Pray that it will be right

    That the earth don’t turn out the lights
    Wave the Old World goodbye
    It’s time to say ‘goodnight’ to the Old World
    Let’s pray that it will be right
    So the world will soon see the light

    I’ll be waving, oh waving
    And I’ll be waiting, oh waiting this night
    It’s time to say ‘goodnight’ to the Old World
    It’s time to say ‘hello’ to the New World
    And wave the Old World goodbye

    I’ll be waving, oh waving
    And I’ll be waiting, oh waiting this night
    It’s time to say ‘goodnight’ to the Old World
    Time to say to say ‘hello’ to the New World
    And wave the Old World goodbye, tonight
