God Bless. Thank you for visiting and sharing your time and thoughts with us. I appreciate y’all very much.
Coleman and I went hiking after he got home from school today (Friday). We walked downtown to Goat Island Park and Greenway. There weren’t any kids in the playground when we arrived, so I made a decision for us to hike along the trail first and then come back to the playground when we were finished hiking.
We started out along the paved hiking trail and meandered over to the dirt disc golf trail which runs simi-parallel to the South Fork Catawba River. While walking adjacent to the river, Coleman pointed out that there was a man standing in the river. This is not a normal sight when we are hiking. Therefore, we proceeded to investigate what the man was doing wading in the South Fork Catawba River.
At first, I thought the man Wading in the river was fishing even though most fishermen/women fish from one of the fishing piers or from the riverbanks. When we were close we asked the man what he was doing. It turns out that one of the disc golf catchers is on the opposite side of the river from where one is to throw the disc. According to the man wading in the river, many people miss the other side when they throw the disc across the river. So, it turns out he was searching the river for any golf discs that may have landed in the river. He had been searching for approximately twenty (20) to thirty (30) minutes when we approached him. Besides wearing waders the man was tethered to the riverbank by a rope to insure he wouldn’t be carried downstream if for some unpredictable strong wind and current tried to whisk him away. So you see, he wasn’t fishing for fish, but instead for golf discs.

I am dedicating this Which Way Challenge (CWWC) in Memory of Cee Neuner who loved photographing flowers and hosted several challenges over her blogging career. With that in mind I have chosen to have my Which Way theme of Any Which Way with Flowers (Flower Pathways).

Wildflowers for Cee
When I first saw the theme was “It’s a Wild Life” I wasn’t sure what I wanted to post for this week. Reading about Cee’s passing sealed the idea for me. Hence, I settled on the Wildlife of Wildflowers displaying a variety of Wildflowers for Cee.

Centennial Center
I’m not usually out at early evening or night time. I have trouble seeing in the dark so Coleman and I are usually always back home before it turns dark. This past Friday, The Town of Cramerton was having a Concert in Centennial Center Park. The Concert did not start until six in the evening, which is still light due to the time change to Daylight Saving Time.
I wanted Coleman to experience the Concert in the park, so we went. We arrived early and found a suitable spot to lay our blanket and sit in the grassy area.
While waiting for the Concert to begin, I snapped shots of the area both with my camera and my iPhone. I shot all these using my iPhone’s fusion camera and captured the area in black and white. Other Special Events will take place the last Friday of each month through the end of Summer. I’ll think about us attending those events when the time comes nearer.
Here are some of what I captured Friday evening.

A Gaggle of Canada Geese
On Sunday, Coleman and I stopped by Goat Island Park and Greenway on the way back home. We were delighted to spot the Canada Geese enjoying themselves on the water of the South Fork Catawba River.
Now that Spring is here and days are approaching the warmer temperatures, we are seeing the Canada Geese more often than we had previously. Sometimes we see larger Gaggle of Canada Geese than we did on this particular day. Most often we see them entering and swimming in pairs. Therefore, seeing three swimming together was a fantastic moment to capture.

Celebrating Spring with Children’s sports through the C.B. Huss Recreation Center Complex. Spring is time for Baseball or in Coleman’s case T-Ball. Spring is time to Take Me Out to the Ball Game. Coleman’s T-Ball practices began on Saturday, March 8th.
Look closely & you might spot Coleman in the infield.
Coaches hitting balls for the players to practice fielding the ball.

On Sunday morning, Coleman and I visited a local church. We were surprised to see one particular parishioner in attendance. His name is Teddy and he is a dog. That’s right I said a dog. I know, you’re thinking what’s a dog doing in a church? I did think it was strange, never saw a dog in a church before. Teddy, the canine parishioner, appeared to be an emotional support dog accompanying the elder gentleman wherever he went. Anyone care to Pull Up a Seat next to Teddy? We sat behind Teddy during the church service.

While Coleman was playing in the backyard he was talking about our landlord’s birdbath and then I noticed the bench sitting within the same Junk Pile. Never know what one might find in a junk pile. One man’s junk is another man’s treasure.

Skillet Southern Bistro
Center Street in Downtown Cramerton is the central location hub for get togethers and dining. The image below is of one of the many eating establishments that people gather for some fine dining experiences.
We mostly prefer to eat at home and not waste our resources on eating out at restaurants. Therefore, I cannot personally substantiate or invalidate the claims of being a highly recommended restaurant. However, from everything I hear about the restaurant, the food is high quality and the service is exceptional.

Good Day! Tina with Travels and Trifles is this week’s host for the Lens-Artist Photo Challenge. Tina has opted to choose a theme of Personal Favorites. She would like us to show what images are our ultimate favorites. I have several favourites, too many to include here. My top two (other than of Coleman) are shown first and foremost. They remind me of wonderful times of enjoyed at Andrew Jackson State Park in Lancaster, South Carolina.

Fun with Outdoor Cooking & ??
Thank you Dan for continuing Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge, can’t say it enough how much it is appreciated and challenging.
This week Dan has chosen the theme of Fun with Food and I have chosen to taken the Fun with Food Outdoors. My selections vary from cooking on open fires, to eating, and some cooking demonstrations. It’s all good and fun and what more fun can be had then by the fresh air and the smell of hot Food cooking over an outdoor fire-pit.
I enjoy camping and cooking on an open fire whenever feasible. Most of these are from years back when I practically lived in the campgrounds. The two photos from the President James K. Polk Historic Site were taken during a Presidents’ Day Celebration in 2014.
The images taken at Andrew Jackson State Park (AJSP) were taken either while camping in or at the Andrew Jackson Birthday Celebration in 2018-2019. I have spent quite a bit of time camping over the years and a lot of time spent in AJSP. I also whenever I am able volunteer at various events held at AJSP as a member of Friends of Andrew Jackson State Park (AJSP).
Hopefully one day in the future I’ll be able to take Coleman camping. He wants a tent and to go camping, I’m just not sure he would stay in the tent at night and not wander off.

Blossoming into Spring
This week Dale with the Cosmic Photo Challenge has asked us to share What’s Flowering in Our Areas… With Spring having arrived for many of us many plants and flowers are sprouting up and beginning to blossom showing their loving bright and vibrant colours.
Being the theme of Flowers I have decided to link this post to Cee’s Flower of the Day and also link to Judy’s Numbers Game #65-186 with Flowers as my theme for all challenges.
Here are my entries for these challenges …

Janet from This, that and the other thing is this week’s host for the One Word Sunday challenge. She has chosen a theme of Pets for this week’s One Word Sunday .
Currently, we do not own any pets, however, Coleman and I see Pets while we are hiking along trails in various Parks and Greenways. Many visitors to Parks and Greenways bring their companions/Pets along with them. Some of the Greenways have Doggie Park sections for the Dogs to enjoy running around and playing with other dogs.
The following are some of the companion Pets we have encountered on our hiking adventures.

It is interesting sometimes what Coleman and I run across while hiking. Things like posts with no apparent rhyme or reason (even if there is one), a discarded trash can (all the Greenway Trash cans are large with a Goat on them & are accompanied by a recycling bin), or a board discarded and tossed into the river. I’ve been teaching Coleman to LEAVE NO TRACE, so he notices when things have been left behind and discarded without thought of keeping the environment safe and clean.
These are examples of what we found discarded and left behind this week.

On Tuesday after Coleman arrived home from school, his mom and I took him to the Baseball field to practice his hitting and fielding. Coleman just recently been assigned to a team for T-Ball.
Anyway, after his mom was tired of helping him practice Coleman and I took a short hike down to the river. The C.B. Huss River access is located off the Eleventh (11) Street parking lot. The Kayak rack is located at the river access trailhead.
Last Thursday, Coleman and I hiked the backside of Goat Island Park and Greenway. We hiked along a back road to reach the far side of the South Fork Catawba River. When we reached our starting point, we came upon these three pipes seemingly discarded near the river.
Walking a bit off trail, we saw these three tree stems, limbs, or branches sticking up out of the water. It is always intriguing to see what interesting things we can find along our hikes.
These Wild Daffodils were saw near the river while we were walking up the road to begin our hike for the day.

Boarded Door & Windows
While hiking the C.B. River Access Trail, Coleman and I discovered this elevated building on stilts near the South Fork Catawba River. When the area receives heavy rainfalls or flooding the water rises all the way up the shoreline and under this building and others similar in structure.
The first image is a close-up view depicting the boarded up door.
The second image highlights the entire sideview of building.
I am not sure what the building’s purpose might be, but it was fascinating to find on our hike.

Dan from No Facilities is the host for Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge and starting last week with the themes focusing on food. I rarely photograph food, however, I did manage to locate a few in my archives. I think they will fit the challenge perfectly.
The photos of food I found for this week’s CFFC–Suggesting Lunch and/or Dinner(Supper) are all of food that was served and deliciously devoured on a cruise to Costa de Maya/Cozumel, Mexico I took back in February of 2020 except for the wrap.
The Lunch and Dinner/Supper food selections which were served were scrumptious, delectable and full of delicious flavors. I was not accustomed to all the delicious delicacies that were served, however, I did find the flavors enticing and pleasantly satisfying.
Normally, I do not eat full complete meals three times a day. The flavorful food on board the cruise ship was too appealing and appetizing to pass up. Never in my life had I ate so much extravagant flavorful food in just five short days and might or might not again one day.

My Portraits for these challenges were taken when we visited the Horses at Anne Springs Close Greenway. Coleman loves visiting the Horses whenever an opportunity presents itself. From the images you can visualize how much he loves visiting the Horses and the respond affectionately towards him.

As seen while Coleman and I were walking around the neighborhood. The new house construction is coming along nicely now that the weather is warming up off and on. This is the view from the side of the house. It is really a narrow looking house that has three stories to it. To me it is an odd shape, but everyone has their own style and purpose for their own designs.
