Checking out the Park

Forest Park is still closed from the October snow, but we took a walk in it today anyway.

Eleven days after the snow, there's still some on the ground in shady areas,

and most of the downed trees have been removed.  This one still sits on what was a Bright Nights display.  Oh, darn.

This is a spot I've photographed several times before.  The birch trees are now tipping even more than they were.  Their roots appear to have been pulled up, so I doubt they'll survive.
