So Wednesday evening after work I decided to go chase a geocache that was recently planted in Owen Park which is about a mile or so northwest of my office. It has been bitterly cold lately but the temps were up to the low 40’s and there was still lots of light so off I went.
Owen Park may be the oldest park in Tulsa, in the oldest part of town. I love it because it has lots of old school rock walls and steps and other things that are way to dangerous to be built today. So it took me a little bit to find it climbing up and down and all around. Rocks like this really drive the GPSr devices we use crazy because of all the multipath noise. But hey, I was having fun. I even got a call from my wife while I was looking at we chatted a little bit. While chatting I spotted a good place for the hide and after the call was over sure enough there it was. Number 1493.
On the way back to the care I took this snap with my cell phone. No clouds or color in the sky but I loved the little skim of ice on part of the pond, and the reflections of the trees. So no filters or cropping or anything like that on this post.
Wow. That could easily be a favorite park for me too! Nice.
Congrats on finding the cache…1493 (a #’d cache…or YOUR TOTAL?)
That’s pretty. It is sad that so many of the things we grew up doing are considered too dangerous now. Good to know there are still places you can hike and climb without a sign telling you to stay behind the fence.
Hello, I like the sunlight coming through the trees. The last scene and photo is pretty.
Happy Thursday, enjoy your day and weekend ahead!
Notced the ice in the thumbnail off Skywatch. looks like you had a cold day there, bit like us
Nice idyllic spot.
Looks like a nice day to be outside. I think you’ve had a colder, snowier winter in the Midwest than we have had in Utah.
Beautiful water, tree and sky shot ~ great light!
Happy Weekend to you,

Congratulations on your latest geocache find! I like the last shot of the icy lake and bare trees. Very pretty capture!
You did a great job. No editing or cropping needed. Love the last one.
Beautiful reflections.
I’m curious about Oklahoma. I hope to see more photos of this great state.
Beautiful captures!
Congratulations! Another geocache added to your collection! Beautiful lake. The temperature here is 33 deg. C and its really hot and sweaty!
Beautiful pics.
Greetings 🙂
Lovely light in your pictures.
Thank you for hosting Skywatch Friday.
Great light. Cool rock wall.
Love the reflection shot! Gorgeous!
