The Ducks and Geese

Suzanne Walker

I have been a photographer for years, as we traveled throughout the United States in our motorhome.  It was an unforgettable experience.  Since hanging up our gypsy keys, I have rekindled my interest in gardening and found the wonderful gem – Nathanial Greene Park and Close Memorial Park, which isn’t too far from my home.  I am there most weekends during the summer and I hope to take more photos during the winter when the park is less busy.

I have to applaud the many hours that the volunteers have put forth in making this the star of the Springfield-Greene County Park System.  Their efforts have made it a wonderful experience for the rest of us.

If you haven’t visited Close Memorial Park, you have missed one of the best parks in Missouri, and maybe the United States!  Visit soon and often.  You will not be disappointed.
