A Beautiful Park
jokertrekker 5 contributions Clayton Sth, Australia Feb 22, 2012
Green Lake Park is a beautiful place for the locals to take the kids and for the Older Folk to get some fresh air in a beautiful place. Spring was in full swing here. The Azaleas and Flowering Cherries native to the province were beautiful. We had a lovely morning here.
