last Wednesday Walk post of the year
Wishing you and yours all the best for a wonderful New Year. lets hope it's a good year, for me and family were hoping for a somewhat boring year, and in this case boring would be good, no hospital visits for any of us would be great
This post if for Wednesday walk challenge
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
Oops I messed up[ again yesterday and shared the wrong post so sharing my Wednesday walk post today
Of course this time of year is when many make New Years resolutions, or finalize them if you have been thinking about them for a while.
I myself came to the conclusion a few years back, that I am terrible and keeping New Years resolutions, so maybe 8 or 9 years ago now I made my last New Years resolution, and perhaps its the only one I ever made and stuck to.
What was it, well let me talk about today's photos and get to that at the end of the post
Now you may notice I said last Wednesday Walk post of the year and not last walk of the year, thats because with the cold, I have not been out for photo walks, but rather have been getting my steps in inside.
THis walk I will share today was one in January of this year, I took my car into MIdas for an oil change and tire rotation, and while they were doing that I walked to a small park next door and enjoyed the view and took a few shots
the area is called Smith Mills
Smith Mills in Dartmouth, MA, began as a vital 17th-century mill village powered by the Paskamansett River, evolving into an early commercial hub with grist, saw, and fulling mills, a town hall, stores, and churches, named after Elishib Smith who established a sawmill in the 1700s, with its history marked by industry, community, and later, significant development like the Paskamansett Links golf course.

Wednesday Walk is a challenge started by me, the idea is to get out for a short walk and get some shots of what you can see within a short distance of your home office or wherever you start. And this is my entry for this week, but first, let me explain the challenge.
This is my post for the Wednesday Walk challenge hosted by myself, let me first explain the guidelines
Try and get out once a week for a short walk, can be from your office, home or anywhere really and walk for a few blocks or a few minutes looking for things to get shots of.
Your walk does not have to be on a Wednesday I just ask if possible to share your walk photos on a Wednesday.
Try and get a few shots not just one
Add a bit of a write up about where you walked
Just one Wednesday Walk tagged post a week
You can look for anything in general or decide on one subject you want to get shots off.
Make a point of looking around and up and see what you can find to get shots of that otherwise you may miss
Do a post with the shots you get on a Wednesday and tag it with #wednesdaywalk, also if you happen to join, please leave a link to your post in a comment on this post and I will try and visit them all, especially if its not one of the first 5 tags or I may miss seeing it .
Following me and re-Hiving the post so more see it would be appreciated but isn't a rule just a suggestion.
I am not strict on these rules and hence why they are called guidelines and not rules
I will try and visit, and upvote all who take part in the Wednesday Walk.
