Saturday I took a short walk on a bicycle path to look for a geocache.
Across this funky enclosed bridge across Mooser Creek.
Next to this tree bunch casting some cool afternoon shadows.
The cache is somewhere in the rocks to the left of the tree. Ididn’t find the cache. It’s about the third time I’ve looked. Everybody else is finding it pretty easily. Oh well, I had a nice walk.

This is a backyard shot showing my neighbor’s fence to the east casting a shadow on my fence with the green space to the north. You get a bonus shot of our dog Kodi at the lower left hand corner.
And here is another fence shadow shot in our greenspace showing a fence shadow from a private residence.
And from my last bike ride. A shadow of my bike during a rest and photographing break. I only do photography when I go by mself. I do too much slow wibble wobbling to suit most people. My problem is that I see stuff I have never seen before and I have to check it out. I have been running, walking, bicycling up and down the Tulsa Riverparks trails for over thirty years and I always see lots of new stuff. Often it is old stuff that I see in a new way! Does that make sense?

One of our YMCA’s has a really nice terrace overlooking a lake. A side benefit is that it makes for great shadows.
Just one more reason to appreciate the YMCA.

A shadowy walkway leads from the visitor center of Oxley Nature Center in Tulsa to their trails.
An confluence of shadows and reflections make for an interesting shadow pattern at library in Tulsa.
“Negative Shadows” form on the side of a hospital in Tulsa.
Another fence shadow with our Pomeranian Kodi and Me!
Shadows on a nice fall day in the courtyard at the gym for some cardio drumming. That’s my wife way at the end, Heather leading the class. She makes it a good workout and fun.
In 45 minutes I burn about 420 calories or so.

Deep Shadows under a bright New Mexican sun at the Chapel in Albuquerque. Deep memories also. My sister and her husband got married there forty six years ago.
And here they are now (or at least back in October when they came for a visit,) Still going strong!! Way to go Ellen and Irv.
I went on a bike ride this morning on the RiverParks trails and stopped at the Cyrus Avery Bridge on Route 66.
Nearby is the Tulsa Sign Park memorializing old motels and their signs on Route 66.
And then earlier this week I hiked on Turkey Mountain and found this shadow.

Sharp Shadows from a bench on a sunny day.
Complex Patters on a swing
Sculptures of Sheep grazing contentedly on the lawn.
Leaves casting a shadow on a sidewalk
And now a reveal. This is the site of Philbrook’s only geocache from years ago. It has been disabled for years. It was a complicated multicache that would take a lot of time but lazy old me thought it out. Most museums are very protective of their gardens and don’t want nasty deet smelling geocachers tramping through their exhibits, dismantling light fixtures, and climbing trellises, fences, and art work so I thought of two places where the fusty but fun museum staff would deem safe enough for geocaching. And I was right! I found it 13 years ago, read all about it here. Oh, don’t bother looking for it if you visit Philbrook, it is long gone.
