Minnesota landscape arboretum is one of my favorite places to walk and take photos, my wife purchased a family and friends pass this year and I do believe that it is money spent wisely for entertainment value and for a good cause.

Spring Summer and Fall have been great and from the last walk I took with my daughter on October 26 I can see that autumn is not an end it is a beginning and now I can hardly wait to go back for the next season, the season of November when things out side are quiet and the wind and cold can seem bitter or sweet autumn colors are fading into winter grays and the rustling of squirrels can sound earth shattering in those woods and meadows. Now those hidden deer are easier to see and the time spent outdoors is so much more appreciated.

Along Concord in St Paul

If you have a day or at least an afternoon, morning or evening this stretch of Concord Blvd between 66^th and Bryant is a great place to explore with a camera, I was on foot and car, it would have been perfect instead if I was on a bike, Lots of wild life, Flowers, old and new bridges. You can get great shots of Planes, Helicopters and other air craft landing and taking off from this location just north of Bryant.
