Beautiful Lakewood

Good day!  Was just speaking with someone today and this blog came up in conversation and I realized I have not posted in quite some time.  I have continued to gather information as well as pictures for content and have not posted....so here are some pictures  I will share with you before I make dinner.

 

 

Since it's winter now and there are no rhododendrons around  to enjoy now, thought I would share some pictures of one of my favorite things about Lakewood.  The flowers, specifically the rhododendrons.  Now likely the best place ever to view them is at Lakewood's famous Lakewold gardens.  However, since I am embarrassed to admit, I live here and have yet to see this land mark/ tourist attraction, I have no pictures of it to share...however....you don't have to go to the Lakewold gardens in order to see a beautiful array of every color of these wonderful flowers.  Just a walk to my children's school in Spring or even a step outside in my own yard will give a beautiful view of these lovely garden additions.  Lakewood has them every where. 

Fall is so vivid here in Lakewood

One of the best things about living here is the scenery, even minus the lakes all around us it is breath taking, especially in the fall.

Here are a few pictures snapped on a couple of our family's walks.

Abundant in yards and business properties in the Tri Lakes area of Lakewood, Lavender.

Fall color beautiful in tiny doses

This park has wonderful play equipment, and the favorite thing most kids there play on?  The hill and the rock....

Lakewood has so many types of trees, likely best known for our rare protected oaks, however maples are also beautiful and abundant.

 

More flowers.

More color

Love how even our businesses are lit up for fall.  This is our local and wonderful Chase bank

 

Historic homes, old fences, hedges, rockeries, and trees make walks in Lakewood fun and full of discoveries
