Laurelhurst Park in Winter

The park, once lush with summer, was cold and bare on the last day of January, 2020. Yet people still roamed through the quiet, surrounded by some of the busiest streets on the East side.

This young lady, baby strapped in a front-pack, contemplates the reflections...

While a man and his dog pick their way along the pond-side path.

Some people relax in hammocks

While the elderly trees dream of spring.

And the lamp post pretends that it is in Narnia ---
