Musings about Life, the Universe and Reality
There once was a land, no further away than your imagination. A Land where the Trees’ whispers can be heard on the wind. And the squirrels chitter and chatter as they scamper to and fro amongst the branches - playing their endless game of tag.
A Land where the Brooks babble endlessly amid fern covered banks. Fish and Tadpoles play a game of Leapfrog in the clear, cool water and Turtles sunbathe nearby.
A Land where the tall Grasses sway in the breeze as if dancing to a distant tune. Wild flowers wave their petals at the busy Bees who fly by; Beckoning to them. Enticing them.
A Land where the Deer graze peacefully in the lush, green valleys. A Land where the Birds and the Faeries gather in the bushes of an evening to share the day's gossip. And the Frog serenade, with Cricket accompaniment, continues well into the night.
A Land where the morning sun melts the night into the shadows of the day. And at sunset the shadows melt into night. But there are times when the shadows melt into things best left to one’s imagination.
A Land of Melting Shadows.

What a beautiful park! All of the architectural details really make me want to go for a visit, despite not really doing the ride thing. Are they closed in the winter and you guys got to wander about anyway? Just curious because of the bumper car photo. :)
Lakeside is closed during the winter months. Hubby & I along with my son and his fiance met the manager of Lakeside Amusement Park a few weeks ago to take a walk through the place. The "Bride and Groom" wanted to be sure that it was going to be the right place for the wedding ceremony before they put down any deposit money. The manager showed us around - we saw the various pavilions available for the after-ceremony meal, along with seating available and the various spots available for the ceremony.
Those flashes of colour against the snow are brilliant.
I love the park! I can just imagine it in Spring time and summer. How fun. I hope you'll post lots of photos before the wedding and after Jeanne : )
I couldn't help but notice the "pentagram"-looking symbol on the tower in the first photo. Do you know what that represents?
Robin ~ Unfortunately, I don't have much history on Lakeside Amusement Park, but am still searching for more in depth info. As soon as I get it, I'll post it. :0)
