Animal Protective League


I visited the Animal Protective League on Saturday.
Their website is at:
www.springfield-illinois.com/apl/

I only had a camera-phone with me, so I don't have many photos to share.

So please visit their facility or their website
to see who is available for adoption.
The APL is located just North of the Illinois State Fairgrounds.
See Google Maps

There are more links to adoptable pets in Central Illinois here.

Madonia Park - 61 degrees in January!


It was 61 degrees out last Sunday.
Imagine that! 61 degrees in an Illinois January.
My family walked our dog at Lake Springfield.
Here are some photos from Madonia Park and from the Marina.
Remember, you can click on an image for a larger view if you wish.

A fisherman had his catch pose for me.

Wow, Lake Springfield's water levels are LOW!
My feet should have been in the water where I was standing to take this picture.

Did you notice the theme in these photos?


There are more Springfield photos available.
Just click on the links on the right hand side of this page.

Some of my favorite photos from this summer
