theres always something more to see…

bijou and i chose meridian park this morning for our a.m. stroll.  you may have noticed from earlier posts that this is a popular spot for us; its super close and so lovely.  we took our normal cruise through the trees, past the jeanne d’arc statue, and down the stairs.

hey joan!

i adore simply sitting and looking up at the fountain in the center of the park.  normally we gander up at it from the bottom.  today we decided to sit along side and see what it had to offer.

a completely new view of things:

 

then, we noticed the little creature on the side of the stone rail, spewing water out its mouth.

never saw THAT before!

and this is the first time i’d noticed those flower pots built into the side of the stairs; flush with orange blossoms celebrating the spring sunshine:

(although that happy ‘doggy on a walk’ face is something im quite familiar with ;)

even though we’ve walked this park dozens of times before, we saw a few new things today. 

i loved the gentle reminder to keep my eyes open to LIFE…

theres always something more to see.
