It was nice to get away recently and spend a few days relaxing with family at Chickasaw State Park. The park is a rustic place, not too far from home, where one can be out in nature enjoying walking trails, picnics, camp fires, and a variety of lake activities.

Beautiful set of photos.

Thanks for taking v time to share the experience through your photos ❤️
Thanks, Kathy! It’s fun to share it with others. 🙂
Lovely photos, you saw a summer tanager! Looks like a great spot to relax and take in nature’s beauty.
A first sighting for me. Actually, I heard him before I saw him. He is a pretty loud singer.
You’ve captured all of Mother Nature’s delights and your quotation, as always, is perfectly matched to the post. That is certainly a true statement!
Thanks, Linda! Nature is certainly full of countless little gems.
And we are lucky that we can appreciate them with our eyes and the camera lens as well.
