Around the Town of Manlius, New York

Spring has come to our House

Manlius Swan Pond

This was originally a mill pond that provided water power to the early factories in the village. Now it's a rest stop for seagulls and a home to swans, ducks, and huge rainbow trout.

Nesting Swan

Yet another walk along the Old Erie Canal...

...Going back...

...Time for a rest...

The tow path is good for a bike ride, too

Interesting farm on the canal...Looks like a subsistence homestead

Back of the farm--seen from the tow path

On top of a hill in Green Lakes State Park

Going down the hill

How about some ice cream after a morning walk?

This shop has just opened for the season, but it's still kind of chilly here. Notice the leaves aren't out yet on the trees, yet. At least you don't have to worry about your ice cream melting too fast!
