RIVEREDGE NATURE CENTER
Riveredge Nature Center
Upon entering the grounds it is any other nature center. Parking, signs -directing visitors here or there.
Walking up the wooden sidewalk it becomes a little different. Strolling back to see what it's all about~it's become different. The building is large, attractive and inviting, with the expansive deck having a multitude of chairs to relax on. This all, overlooking the river, boasting gorgeous lily pads, birds of various species, a martin house and lovely
wild flowers, of many kinds.
Even though it rained shortly after we arrived at the Center, it was very pleasant.
We sat on the deck enjoying the afternoon and the view of 'Mother Natures' creations in front of us.
I will return to the Center to view the displays inside, as it was closed when we were there. Peering through the windows there seem to be some very educational exhibits. In fact, this week will be the perfect time to return. Now~which day will be best?
Postscript to this blog:
I had to search and purchase a new laptop, as my old, trusty Thinkpad was having mega problems.
I have not posted for some time/as the old computer would no longer upload photos and the new one had me baffled as to how to post.
I'm taking lessons and learning a lot! I still need to explore all there is with this new system. Moving from one system to another is certainly an adventure!
