November trip to Bishop, Calif. 2009

This is the park in Bishop, Calif. that we went to years ago when Anna and Dustin were little. We put a blanket down and had a snack and fed the ducks. It's a beautiful little park around the visitor's center.


These pictures really don't do justice to the real beauty of the park but you can see the colors and get an idea.

These ducks are probably the descendents of those very same ducks that we fed years ago with Anna and Dustin.

These were just a few of the ducks that were there. There were some pretty white geese too that couldn't compete very well as their necks were too long but they still looked well fed.

The park was not as busy as it had been the day before because schools were closed for veteran's day. It sure brought back memories.

We stayed at this hotel. The room's sliding glass door opened to this creek that ran on the side of the hotel going across the street to the park. The ducks would come right up to the door begging for bread.

This is the bakery Bishop is known for by everyone. Home of the famous sheepherder bread and many other delicious foods.

This place was always busy with people from everywhere it seemed.

This car was on display outside between the bakery and the hotel.

There were many interesting rocks to collect for souvenirs.

This is another park in the area with picnic tables and places to walk and relax.
