Are you ready for another round of Alphabe Thursday? Let's go!
One of the many things that I love about living in Milwaukee is that I only have to drive five or ten miles to feel like I'm completely out of the city. While I love living in an area with lots of restaurants, stores, looming architecture, and city roads, I also love being right near Lake Michigan, beaches, woods, and trails.
Today I'm sharing just a few of my favorite urban nature shots from Milwaukee. Enjoy.
I love to post at least one older photo in these Alphabe posts. This shot is from my first excursion to Klode Park. It quickly became one of my favorite spots in the city.

What an awesome set of photos! I can't even begin to choose a favorite this time!
ReplyDeleteI love living in a rural area, but I sure wish the city was just a little closer.
That waterfall is insane! I can't believe that's in the city!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite cities are the ones on the water! It always seems to take the edge off the urban setting. Nice photos!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Paige - the waterfall photo is incredible!
ReplyDeleteYour area certainly has a lot to offer!
Salt Lake City is the same way. You can drive 15 minutes and be in the mountains.
ReplyDeletelovely shots...
Beautiful photos!! Did you show a different shot of that boat before? I seem to remember it, but maybe I'm wrong. Anyway, it's awesome!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful parks! Some of those shots are wall-worthy for sure!!
ReplyDeleteYou make Milwaukee seem quite appealing!
ReplyDeleteDear Rose, Beautiful pictures, though my favorite is the black and white rocks with water and the path; Lake Park and Estabrook Park.
ReplyDeleteBlessings dear and a hug, Catherine xo
Welcome to Instagram! I love it too.
ReplyDeleteI love seeing pics of blogger friends from all around the world - you certainly live in a very picturesque part of it :-)
Beautiful images! (instagram follow done!)
ReplyDeleteWe have nature just minutes away too and I love it! Your photos are so beautiful and make me want to explore Milwaukee's nature!
ReplyDeleteWe are blessed to have beautiful nature spots close, also. Great shots!
ReplyDeleteLove that last picture!! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteIf you didn't tell me I would have never believed that these photographs were taken near Milwaukee...
ReplyDeleteThey seem like they are deep in nature in some National park or something!
Nicely done...
Thanks for linking to the letter "N"!
A+
Gorgeous photos!! My grandmother lived in West Allis, and although we went to the Zoo and other sites, I dont remember ever heading over to these places when we would go up for vacations.
ReplyDeleteBlessings & Aloha!
