Afternoon by the Lagoon

David suggested we drive over today to Wade Oval and the Wade Lagoon by the Cleveland Museum of Art. It’s a beautiful spot in Cleveland’s University Circle that I have visited many times during and since my childhood..

The weather today was sunny and reasonably warm in the upper 50s (maybe even lower 60s). A few trees were blooming, but it’s a bit early.

We walked around for a while and just enjoyed a simple Spring afternoon by the lagoon.

The Lagoon is home to huge goldfish, ducks and geese.

  1. Nice, Bob. I especially remember The Thinker from so many visits to the museum.
