I wasn’t successful in finding Pelicans when I drove north to Lockport last week, but I headed up there again this morning – just in case they had arrived.

A Drive to Lockport
This morning after breakfast, I decided to take a drive north to Lockport.

I walked for about 2 hours, putting about 8,000 steps on my FitBit along with 6 flights of stairs (some stairs and some hills). I took some… Continue reading Beautiful Morning
