Was it only a couple of weeks ago I was in Indiana with Loretta? Lots has happened since then, and I still haven't showed you all the fun we had. On Sunday afternoon we went to Ouabache State Park. Just say Wabash, like the river. It's near Bluffton.
They have a nice trail system, over 10 miles! We did about two miles.

We followed the eastern edge of the park and returned beside the small lake where a stream that flows into the river is dammed.

Loretta is still smiling even after I walked her about to her limit.

I liked this bare honey locust against the sky.

It's easy to tell the honey locust. It's the ones with the nasty thorns growing right from the trunk.

Really full work day coming up tomorrow.

Ouabache is a very nice little park. We do it once each summer. On the schedule for August.
That trail pic looks so inviting . . .
I love your blog. It is always varied and interesting. I especially love it when you post from Indiana and places I have visited. Thanks for your interesting posts.
I've never seen a honey locust before. Those are some nasty looking thorns.
