It's so nice to have a beautiful park nearby.

After a cold snap, many of the trees here in Florida look like Autumn, usually in December or January!

Beautiful Monday pictures :)
Love cucki x
I'm doing the same on Tuesday. Blogland needs a short time to reflect and respect.
Love the park and the verse. So appropriate at this time.
I think we are all struggling with making sense of it all.
Love your photos of the park. It is hard to not think of all the pain in Newtown and the kids have to return to school on Tuesday. xo,Susie
I am still deciding about joining a Blogger Day of Silence, though I certainly respect those who do. It is good to see an address where information is available for donations. The park looks peaceful and restful...a good place to take a quiet walk and think and pray. (I'm terribly impressed with your cell phone!)
This is one of my favorite places!!!
What a beautiful park! I need some time to reflect on all of this and so will join the Blogger Day of Silence. I am just now hearing about it but think it's a good idea! Hugs, Linda
It would be great to have a park like yours close by. Might make it easier to walk.
Thanks for sharing.
I remember those beautiful Florida days. I need to add that graphic for Tuesday on my post tomorrow. xo Diana
just gorgeous- how lucky...
Karen
Looks like a beautiful park!
Such pretty and peaceful pictures Diane. A bloggers day of silence sounds like the right thing to do.
It's difficult to be 'normal' right now,isn't it?

What a pretty park, love the heron. Beautiful photos, have a great week ahead.
Hello Diane
I'm always amazed at the photos the new cell phones can take. A friend of mine and I travel to some garden shows and usually tote along our big Canon cameras but she has only been bringing her iPhone of late which produces super pictures like you have here.
That shot of the water with the fountain in the middle is so peaceful looking.
Judith
Your photos are beautiful!
Hi there namemate! Thank you for linking up :) You have a new cute blog header again, I so love it!!
And the park provides a great venue to relax and savor that much needed peace and silence we want. I'm one with your country in praying for all the innocent lives lost.
Such a beautiful park. A lovely respite. The tears and prayers have been flowing all weekend. My husband and I both work in school settings. It's just heart-wrenching. Those children were Josie's age.
Beautiful park...
Such beautiful photos!!
The park is beautiful. Your photos are good. Sometimes I think my iPhone takes better pics than my good camera!
It's All Connected will join you in the silence and prayers on Tuesday. I wish I could spend the day in your beautiful park!
Beautiful images and such a peaceful looking park - I love the name too Shalom.
A very sad Christmas for the poor families affected by the Connecticut shootings.
Shalom Aleichem (Peace to You), my sweet friend,
Thank you for this wonderful post. I will be adding your Sandy Hook button to my blog post and observing the day, too.
Blessings,
Carolynn xoxo
A lovely post. I will join you on Tuesday for a day of silence and prayers. Beautiful photos.
Your cellphone takes beautiful photos! That is a wonderful park and I could spend a lot of time there.
Beautiful park !!!...enjoy this week....8 days to go....love Ria...xxx...
Your new header is very sweet! And enjoyed your visit to the park. Cell phone pictures are amazing!
What a lovely park! Certainly, nature can be a place of peace and a solace to our souls in this time of grief for the nation. Thanks for sharing at MM. xoxo
it certainly is lovely to have a park, or a beach, or a bush track to walk along, to absorb the peace and quiet and have time to reflect - especially in these times of trouble.
I wish you a safe and joyous Christmas.
I wish I could go to the park and just rest for awhile. I will follow Tuesday Blogger day of respect,too. Thanks for sharing this Diane.
Hugs,
Dorothy
Beautiful pictures. We all need a lovely place to meditate this week.
Parks are wonderful places to walk and to reflect on life. Certainly, we all need to do that, especially when something so tragic happens.
Beautiful photos. Those leaves against the water look like pieces of gold.
For an old phone it sure takes beautiful photos!
Robyn
This really is a beautiful park! Lovely pictures, and I am amazed you took those with your phone!
Lovely park and mosaic. Valerie
A beautiful peaceful place to visit, we all need more of that in our lives.
I am joining in the silence on Tuesday also.
Jen
