Our Favorite Pond in Pasadena

Every time we go to Florida to visit - and in this case - for an emergency situation, we always stop at the pond up the street from our house. As a child, I would go there once in a while to fish with a bamboo rod. Since it was closer, I went more frequently to the smaller pond. But my husband loves this larger pond. There is an island on it that serves as a nesting spot for a variety of water fowl. Yes, there are the usual ducks, and more peculiar ducks, and heron, and odd sorts of other birds. So we drive around it a couple of times to see what's new. These birds are obviously spoiled because they approach the car looking for a handout, and cross the street without a care in the world. I don't think I would want to live near all these feathered friends, but it is an interesting place to visit. Even as the seasons change, it seems to look the same. There is something very peaceful about the place and we would miss it if we didn't stop by to say hello.
