This Is More Like It

On Easter Sunday we came further east to Little River Park in Ringold, Oklahoma.

We are out of the desert and into the woods!

We have lots of space around us and it is very quiet here.

It was not quiet at the disc golf course we found. It was on the grounds of an International Paper plant.

They were working and it was noisy and stinky, but otherwise fun.

Back at Little River Park it was peaceful and quiet. Not even the fish were moving.

A storm front passed by last night with a chance of severe thunderstorms and hail. But although there were storms around us it stayed quiet here.

We woke up to a still and lovely dawn.

Matey and I found flowering dogwood…

and birdsfoot violets on our walk. I’m glad to be in the woods for spring.

    Although the desert pics were interesting, these were much prettier…..

    and calming! Glad you didn’t get the storms.

    It does look like a nice peaceful place! BTW, is Ringold pronounced Rin – gold or Ring – old?

      I haven’t heard a local say it. I’ve been sharing the “g” with both syllables – Ring-gold.

        That’s the way I’ve pronounced it, too. Maybe, before you leave the area, you’ll find out if we’re right or wrong.
