Seen Around Lakewood

Post by Jim O'Bryan »

Starting another ongoing post, and encourage any and all to jump in and post images and
thoughts on what you saw in and around Lakewood.

On a recent field trip we saw this couple walking down Detroit at dusk. So I stopped and
we talked. It seems that he performs with other stilt walkers, jugglers, and entertainers
every Tuesday Night at the Phantasy Night Club Complex and Wrestling College.

See easy, painless and fun.

What have you seen in Lakewood?

Sunset 06.10.10 - Webb Road, pocket park, Webb Road and Edgewater Drive.

We do need to expand our access to the lake. But right now we have a couple nice places
to gaze off and think of nothing but how nice life is.

My apology, saw some things but did not post them!

So easy to share ideas and images. :roll:

Image
While talking on the phone suddenly the person said, "Wow the entire sky turned
orange, check it out!" So I did and saw...


...then I looked East and saw this!

Image
I do not ever remember an orange rainbow before.


Image
I see a lot of butterflies and bees this year. That is a great sign after losing almost
half of the bee population in recent years.

Image
Fascinating Lakewoodite. I see him all over Lakewood with a different headdress each time.
This "mowhawk" is made from potato and corn chip bags. I have seen boxes, candy canes,
flowers, beer cans, etc.

Walking art.

Well until next time....

Remember it never hurts to share...

I hate sign pollution and would hate anymore of these. But I have to admit there is
something wonderful about a chipmunk that dances EVERY TIME YOU BEEP YOUR HORN!
Try it! If you walk by just go "beep beep" it will dance! It is really wonderful, kids love it.

Sunflower showing the Fibonacci Numbers at work in nature. Fibonacci is perhaps best
