Buttermilk Falls

I intended to go to the Corning Museum of Glass today, but I left Carol's too late to spend some quality time at the museum. Because I knew I wouldn't make it, I stopped at a nature center and took Hope for a walk. It was just a walk through the woods; no boardwalk, no swamp, no views -- just woods:


Along the way, I also passed this cool post office. You know what's weird about post offices? When I want one, I can travel through 20 towns and put countless hours and miles on the van and never see one. When I don't want one, I drive by dozens. Today I passed at least five.


The colors didn't come out so great with this picture so I tried playing around with color hues and saturation. It is close, but not quite there. I took this picture because the roof was green. I thought the green roof against the green field and trees would make for a really awesome picture.


A roadside garden in downtown Ithaca:


My final destination for the day was Buttermilk Falls State Park in Ithaca, NY. These are pictures from around the park:

This last picture is of a house that was halfway between the lower park entrance and the upper park entrance. I liked it so I took a picture of it:
