Up until a few minutes ago I had great plans to make some sort of shiny template for my photo-centric posts. Well, likely due to the carbohydrates currently making me feel sluggish, I’m just not up for that. So I’ll offer a quick summary of my day yesterday, and this (photo gallery retired)<\/em> link to a bunch of photos taken then.<\/p>\n I had initially left my house hoping to visit Bloomer Park<\/a> in Rochester Hills and wander along the Clinton River to the former crossing of the Huron Clinton Canal, but with the $6 entrance fee, I decided to skip it. I drove Bloomer road west, eventually ending up in downtown Rochester, at which point I decided to head north. I wasn’t sure of where I was going, but I figured I’d end up someplace interesting.<\/p>\n And… I did. While driving north on Rochester Road, after passing through some quite drastic construction<\/a> I came across a fireman standing in the middle of the road, stopping traffic. As I passed I realized that it was because the Oakland Township<\/a> fire department was having their yearly open house. I turned around, parked, and went to take a look at what all was being offered. Well, there was quite a bit to see, including a demonstration of various hydraulic tools being used to cut, pry, or otherwise disassemble vehicles in which people have been trapped.<\/p>\n After that I headed over to downtown Lake Orion (don’t ask me how I got there) and found that there is a dam beneath M-24<\/a>. Then I headed north on M-24, and somehow a while later I found myself at Big Fish Lake in the Ortonville State Recreation Area<\/a>. I wandered around there taking pictures, then I headed over to Round Lake<\/a> where I did some more wandering alone in the woods.<\/p>\n Oh, I forgot to mention this, but it seems that yesterday was the start of bow hunting season for deer. Whoops… Probably not the best time to be wandering along in the woods. Ah well, I’m still alive.<\/p>\n After visiting Round Lake, I headed west and came across the Ortonville Bridle \/ Snowmobile Trails<\/a>, where I did a bit of wandering on what were clearly marked as horse trails<\/a> before getting back in the car. Then I headed a bit further west (I think) and stumbled across Eaton Cemetery<\/a> where I poked around for a bit and took photos of almost every headstone there.<\/p>\n After Eaton Cemetery I headed a bit south, eventually happening upon Bloomer #3<\/a>, where I did a bit more wandering before I suddenly had pangs of nearly-passing-out-ness from low blood sugar. At that point I turned my car and headed towards home.<\/p>\n Ending up in downtown Ortonville (I think) I stopped off at a place called Frosty Boy and picked up (after a lengthy wait) a medium vanilla ice cream cone<\/a> in order to tide me over. Needless to say, it was quickly eaten<\/a>. Feeling a bit re energized, noticing signs for Indian Springs Metropark<\/a>, and having a Metroparks pass on my car, I decided to pay this new (to me) metropark a visit.<\/p>\n It turns out that this park is located almost right next to NOAA DTX (Detroit \/ Pontiac) location. This was pretty made pretty obvious by the looming white radar dome<\/a> in the distance. Oh, and this park seems really promising as well. There is a new Environmental Discovery Center<\/a> being built there which will even have what appears to be an acrylic dome stretching off the back of the building<\/a> into a pond of sorts. This could be really cool.<\/p>\n Beyond the Environmental Discovery Center, there is also some rather interesting playground<\/a> and waterpark equipment<\/a>, including what, from a distance, looks to be a prison camp<\/a>. Yes, it is a large maze constructed of cyclone fence, complete with observation platform<\/a>. It’s a bit foreboding, a bit frightening, and also extremely cool. I can’t wait to see it once it’s done.<\/p>\n
