Things don’t always go according to plan…so adjust. My daughter told me I am weird, because I just went to the park and sat there by myself. Honestly, I enjoy those moments. No one bothers me, and I just sit observing, clearing my head.
I love this location on Rogers Street in Lowell, even though it is on a busy stretch of road, there is a sense of calm just sitting there.
There were others while I was there but I just sat there and enjoyed the view. Then the smell of rain and sounds of thunder urged me to move on. I could not leave before one last shot of the hovering rain clouds.

Wamesit Falls Overlook
This location was my second trip for the morning. I love this place, when I got home and showed the images to my son, his comment,” I had no idea this is in Lowell”. Take a ride down Lawrence Street in South Lowell park, walk around a bit and enjoy the view.

My Dunkins Trip
So I took a trip to Dunkin Donuts to have my daily indulgence, large hot-chocolate with half french vanilla coffee, cream & sugar with corn or honey bran muffin. Living in Lowell I have a choice of several Dunkins but two of my favs is Rogers Street and the fairly new location at Dutton St. Today it was Dutton Street, placed my order then pulled around to the parking area and got out with my camera. It is truly a lovely location, the landscaping is improving daily and the backdrop of the canal makes it inviting. Now if only those bulky utility truck could be elsewhere!

Drive By Snaps
I don’t always like driving, as the passenger I can quickly whip out my camera and get a few candid shots. I get more bad shots than good ones but I really enjoy doing it. Today my son picked me up after work, I sat in the back seat and kept snapping.

At the Marsh
]I am somehow drawn to this marsh area on Billings Street in Lowell, each time I drive by I get the urge to stop and take pictures. It is not the cleanest place, it smells terrible, and looks like it is being used as a dump site at times. In any event I am still drawn to it due to the abundance of ducks. Big ones, small ones just swimming around and having fun, they are a beauty to watch. Once I went by there was a lady sitting and feeding them, I am not sure how she tolerates the stench, but then again I am there with her too, snapping away. I wish there could be more done to clean up the area, where people have discarded unwanted items.
