These are all of my photos of Atlanta’s skyline. Atlanta’s skyline stretches on a North to South spine along Peachtree St so there are lots of interesting angles. It’s a beautiful city that I love living in.
Red Top Mountain State Parks Beach has been recently renovated. It’s in a nice cove that is protected from boat traffic. It’s quite large with a very scenic area and a large beach area. Definitely a great amenity for a park with lots of trails, lots of cabins, and lots of other amenities.
This picture is my last visit to see the panda bears in Zoo Atlanta. They were recalled to China where they will live out their lives there. It’s a little bittersweet.
Sometimes hiking in the southern Appalachians can get brambly and overgrown, but I love spots where several forest communities are living close together. At this spot, there is dry, upland pine in the background and shaded, wet fernbank in the foreground.
Crooked River State Park is one of the most underrated State Parks in Georgia. And the Georgia coast is one…
At Lassen Volcanic National Park, I was surprised by just how volcanic it was, everywhere. And yes, I know it’s in the name. But I was not expecting lava rock to be everywhere and for all the lakes & springs to have a whiff of sulfur and boiling water to them. It feels like the Earth is genuinely alive & active beneath your feet (which, in fairness, it is..). Boiling Hot Springs Lake in the Warner Valley is a little off the beaten track, but we had it all to ourselves on a summer weekend.
Mother Nature doesn’t want you goofing off on the Pacific Coast beaches.
*like, sometimes I publish…a lot :O – though you can pick what categories you want.
Ahh…I see you’re up for some extra inconvenience. Some Type 2 Internet Fun, if you will. Well then! Follow me with your favorite Fediverse app or server (e.g., Threads, Mastodon, Pixelfed, etc).
