Ever wonder what having all your ducks in a row looks like? Check out this long line of ducks at Lake Springfield near Marina Point. Photo taken during the Nov 24, 2004 snowstorm.

Hermit crabs at the pet store at the mall. It is a very interesting display. This photo doesn't do it justice.

Welcome to Springfield Photos !
Hi Everyone! Welcome to my latest project, a photo blog!
I guess you could almost call is a moblog, but I'm thinking that the "mob" stands for mobile and most of my pictures won't be from a camera phone, although a few might be.
Feel free to post comments on the photos as you wish.
Go ahead and add the url to your list of bookmarks and check in regularly.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Lake Springfield at the Lindsey Boat dock. Oct 30, 2004. This was one windy day. The theme from Hawaii 50 was in my head as I took this picture. There was not a single boat trailer in the parking lot. Gee, I wonder why?
The "PecanMobile" at the Farmer's Market. Those pecans are excellent. Be sure to try their chocolate covered pecans sometime. BTW, their banner says "Welcome to the Nut House". This picture was taken on October 30, 2004.
Another guest at the Harvest festival. I love the tablecloth design. You can find it at Walmart in the sewing department. I wonder what other uses would be good for this pattern?
The "Garlic Guy" at the Farmers Market shares a story with a customer. That "Frisco Red" garlic is excellent, We stocked up on it for the winter. One family fav is to saute the garlic in olive oil and then use a microwave popper (with the olive oil and garlic bits) to pop the popcorn. Yum!
Last Saturday was the last Farmers Market for the year. I'll miss it to be sure. They had a "Harvest Festival" on this day with a band, farm animals, costume contest, etc.
