Wednesday Walk A recent walk in Hazelwood Park

This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)

Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)

Don't be shocked but todays post is of a walk I did this week, one day last week we had a nice day compared to recent weather with the temp almost hitting 50F and a nice sunny day.

It was one of the days I pick up my Granddaughter from school, I wasn't sure if she has club after school that day so I headed to the area about half an hour early parking at Hazelwood park thinking I could get a half hour walk in before heading to the school if she got out at the normal time of 2:30.

Then I got a text that she was going to a different school club after classes and wouldn't need to be picked up till 4, so I had more time for a walk :)
Starting with a shot of the Gazebo in the park

As many of you may know I used to mostly bet out for early morning walks before and during the sunrise, and I do love that time of day for walks, its is so peaceful and quiet, but I must say perhaps because I haven't been out for a photowalk for quite a while, and in part because on early morning walks often starting int he blue hour there is limited light and hence limited options of what you can take photos of.
Taking a walk in daylight the options for photos is more wide open for this post the photos are more wider shots on the walk, but I also took lots of detail sort of shots which I will share in future posts.

The gazebo again and one of the many benches in the park, as you can see nice skies and sunny, I did look for any signs of spring, new growth on trees or flowers and such but didn't have any luck in that regard.

I also popped across the road from the park for a short walk on West beach

Weekly giveaway of shares

This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive @sanya83, @selflessgem @umirais, @rt305 and @carolynstahl

And @elizacheng will send to @jurich60


As @elizacheng and I collaborated with our Wednesday Walk and Make me Smile Challenges

And one person is randomly drawn who joins both challenges to receive one Hive from me and this week it is @TBA

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.

This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines

Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.

Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.

Try and get a few shots not just one

Add a bit of a write up about where you walked

Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week

You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.

Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss

Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .

Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.

I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules

I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.

Make me Smile Collaboration

As I mentioned above Wednesday Walk is collaborating with the [Make Me Smile] hosted by @elizacheng,

Here are the rules for her challenge

Your post can be writing, singing, video, poem,drawing, photography etc.... the most important part is your post Make me" smile, Remember, the ME is whoever read/view/listen to your post and this includes YOURSELF.

I'm glad you had a good long walk :) It must have felt good to get on the seaside again 🙌

And it didn't look so busy out there :) ...

This post has been manually curated by the VYB curation project

Ohh yeah it really felt good to get out for a walk hopefully I will find time for a lot more of them

I'm sure you will :) Once in motion, one tends to stay that way 🙌

!PIZZA !LUV

yes I think so we had a norEaster come through which brought lots of snow inland, and cooler temps and winds here but hopefully now it starts warming up

Winter can't last forever 😂

Wonderful you had some extra time to go on a walk while waiting for your grand daughter… At last you walked during a nice day 😉
It does look nice. The gazebo is cute and the house beautiful.

Thanks for sharing @tattoodjay 😊

Today I take you on a walk to a few waterfalls.

Have a wonderful Wednesday 👋🏻

Thanks it was great to get out for a nice walk
just visited your post and abosultely loved it

I can imagine… especially as you haven’t been out much for a walk.
Thanks a lot, thought you would.

Have a great day too! 👋🏻😎

👍🙂👍

have a great day

I'm glad you were able to get out for a walk again! And great that you had some extra time too!

I'm sure you'll start seeing some signs of spring soon. At least that one tree behind the gazebo had some green color to it.

Thanks for sharing these beautiful photos, @tattoodjay. Have a great day!

thanks and yes I am confident soon I will be out for more walks and see signs of spring :)

😉👍

Thanks for choosing my post and support @tattoodjay

👍🙂👍

Great shots there here in my city we don't have many of those "bandstands" buildings only a couple they kinda rare to come across but always nice to see one in parks where they do have them.

An enjoyable read and lovely photos again, have a good day

thanks for your visit, on my visits to the UK I dont think I ever saw any gazebos
so its kind of funny that here in New England there are so many of them

Blessed day Sir @tattoodjay, the pictures, and places you shared are beautiful, thank you for sharing! And here is my entry to the #wednesdaywalk

POST LINK

Have a blessed day!🙏😇

thanks so much
thanks for sharing your link :)

- Hello Sir @tattoodjay thanks a lot!🙏May God bless you more..Have a blessed day!😇

Oh cool thanks so much @tattoodjay! I really envy the beauty of your surroundings. You can see that thing called "grass".😊

most welcome

lol the grass is still struggling here but soon the greens will come out

I love the shot with the house... It's so well composed and the house adds interest . How old is your granddaughter? I bet she loves walking with her granddad.

thanks, she is coming up on 13 she sometimes talks about going for a walk with me, but then she would miss being on her computer at home and would say thats enough LOL

Beautiful shots! Any idea what the building is in the second photo? Looks like it maybe used to be a community building or a town hall or something? I'm guessing it wasn't a private residence given the location near the playground, but I could be wrong.

it is Howland House, and was built in 1890 and is a historic building and was a private house initially but i do not know much about it other than that

Oh wow, that is really cool. Thanks for clearing that up! I thought sure it was an old school or something!

you never know it may have been, I am sure it has more history than I was able to find

What a beautiful walk you had today. The Gazebo is great. I love all your shots especially the beaches.

Thanks it was nice to get out for a walk :)

Yes, indeed.

Wow your photographs are so aesthetic, I can't find such place like that here on the Philippines cause Beaches are occupied by establishments that ruins the view, I want to join in this challenge and I saw a lot of spots in BGC where I can take good photos.

thanks so much and I look forward to you joining the Wednesday walk some time

with spring kicking in there soon it will be nicer

OHh yes Indeed I am looking forward to it

Hello dear friend @tattoodjay
It's good that the weather allowed you to go for a walk and share pleasant time with your granddaughter.
Beautiful place for a walk, especially because of the sand on the coast
I appreciate you sharing these beautiful photos.
have a great day

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

Beautiful blue sky and the sea, looking so peaceful and serene. It's indeed a good idea to collaborate with Make me Smile challenge! :)

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

It's always nice to walk into the day! I have to admit, an afternoon walk with you is a treat, and different light.

The beach has a different light and vibe to it, but, if I come back next week, everything will be popping. Is the first shot part of the park or is it one of the town's houses. It could easily go either way. I agree that the detail shots are way different depending on the light vs less/more light. I hope to get out more later today to get some of the early magnolias blooming. Some have been blown off with the wind in the last few days.

It is always a delight to see your photos as you make your way around town and other places! Thank you and have a great rest of your week!

Here is my entry this week: https://peakd.com/hive-106316/@dswigle/im-walking-its-wednesday

Yeah I did enjoy it and most likely will be doing more daytime walks for a while, its a nice change

yes that house is in the park

the Wind has bene crazy here this year in general and with the norEaster tthe last couple of days, but I am not complaining as at least we didnt get hit hard with snow like some areas did

thanks for sharing your link

If your grand daughter don't have other thing to do that day for sure she would love to walk with you that afternoon. The place is great much more the beach, oh how I missed it.

yeah maybe one day she will come for a walk with me i would love that :)

Lovely views of the area, I enjoy seeing this park at every season by your side !

Beautiful shoots, especially the shoreline 😉 Thanks you :)

Thanks kindly your support is appreciated

Have a great day

You're welcome !

Don't manage to always comment, leave a sign as you do... but always appreciate :)

LUckily I am retired and try to keep time free on Wednesdays and Thursdays so I can keep up on here :)

This is the good strategy 😉

I'm almost retired too, even at 30... Lol I'm kidding, but as I work on missions, I've still plenty of free (hive) time haha !

A cool idea of gazebos that can be made a reality in your garden or backyard of the house, and with the help of the pros on the site https://k-goodhome.com/services/gazebo/ it will be much easier and easier to do, because the guys specialize on the installation of wooden arbors so that you can relax and enjoy the finished product. So such a dream can be accurately translated into reality very quickly, as there are specialists who are ready to calculate any nuances.

thanks for the link I will check it out
