This is a swamp.
This swamp has been here as long as I've been coming to visit and I have only had thoughts like, "Ewww" for this particular location at Quaker Hill. It's usually swarming with mesquitos and covered with algae and all types of unknown floaties. . . I generally try to avoid it.
It also happens to be a popular playground for the kids. . .
I couldn't imagine why anyone would want to play on or around the "island" in the middle of this swamp but I was pleasantly surprised at the beauty I found in such an unlikely place.
The reflection in the water was like a mirror.
It was so clear and still . . .
I guess you could say it's not so much a swamp as a lovely pond. . .
. . . a pond that provided hours of entertainment and discovery. . .
Although, in the middle of July I'm thinking it will revert back to being a swamp. . .
