Star Links
A cute new edition to my findings shop are these sterling silver star links! They are 22mm round which makes them a great size for necklace and bracelet designs as well as earrings. Available here.
Independence Greenway
Independence Greenway is an old rail trail in my new town that has been converted into a paved trail for walking, running and biking.
Parts of it show views of the Ipswich River.
I love the dotted line that is on the entire trail. Its total length is 8 miles (no we did not walk that far)!
Wildflowers were everywhere, particularly the purple pretties.
I love these little fuzzy things.
More meandering water.
The sunlight was perfect for seeing reflections on the water.
A heavenly habitat to make the frog population very happy.
This photo does not do the walk justice, but there are huge open areas that go on very far! There are a lot of power lines through here so it needs to stay open and maintained.
Some areas have pops of multi color!
I'm not sure what is going on here, but there was an outhouse in the woods with what appears to be a solar panel for energy. Maybe it is used by the maintenance workers?!
Thank you for stopping by! If you are in the U.S., enjoy your holiday Monday! Have a great week too. :) ~Val
it's beautiful :)

Hi Val,
ReplyDeleteNow that is a beautiful nature trail. It was a good idea to turn an old train track into a nature trail.

Love the star cut outs! There are so many possibilities. Beautiful pictures. In the house I lived in while my kids were young, we had the rails to trails two blocks away. It was always a nice and safe place to walk. I miss them.
