Fall Season in Loring Park – Minneapolis
Time goes by so fast, and it’s already my tenth month living in Minneapolis (Minnesota, USA). It’s been a pleasant stay so far, although I find it is challenging to start a career here. It’s never been easy when you are not a local. However, regardless the not-so-promising-career, there is a place in Minneapolis where I find a sanctuary for the peace of mind; Loring Park. It is the place where I feel attached most to the city. A park that is for everyone; the young ones to the elderly, the joggers to the dog walkers, the sporty ones to those who just want to relax. Loring Park has a public swimming pool, a tennis court, basketball court, barbecue area, a dog’s park and plenty trees to hang a hammock.
I have been visiting the park in all seasons of the year, and by far the fall season in Loring Park is my favorite one. These pictures as below explained my reason. I could not resist to these amazing colors at the park!
Sometimes the permanent residents of the Loring Park would greet you, especially if you were kind enough to bring their favorite treats (not recommended by the park authority though 😉 ).
There were more residents that caught my attention, but they were too shy to pose in front of my camera…
And of course, this little guy, my faithful companion when exploring the park. He loved the fragrance of the falling leaves and kept rolling around on top of them. These images were lucky shots when he was behaving 😉
Do you have a place in your town that you feel attached to?

indahs: dive, travel & photography 
on a positive note …more time for photography and blogging ;). ken.
That’s true..but I get distracted easily by the US presidential news here 😀 – I can’t help to keep following it 🙂
perfectly understandable, i get distracted too, even from far away malaysia (watched yesterday’s final debate); needless to say you who is in the thick of the action! ken.
Ah, fall is my favorite season, and park is my favorite place to spend my free time. You capture both perfectly Mbak. The photos are gorgeous!
Thank you so much Dixie 🙂
Bonjour Indah, tes photos de ce parc sont magnifiques et j’adore les couleurs automnales avec les reflets et tous ces jolis animaux. Ton chien est superbe 🙂
Bien amicalement
Merci Denise!
You have transitioned with such positive spirit Indah. I’m glad you have the park to give you solace in challenging times. We live beside the river and walking along the river path is my happy place for sure. Gorgeous photos and an extra pat form me for your pup.
Thank you so much Sue! Hope you are having a great weekend!
Nice pics! Whats the pups name?
Thank you! His name is Dante – inspired by Inferno 😀
Definitely Rocky Point — I’ve written countless posts on the hiking trail — probably bored everyone to death about the place.
Maybe my comment went to your spam (?)
I will check it out!
Your photographs are always stunning, Indah. I love this park. It’s so pretty and looks serene. Unfortunately, I don’t know any place in the town we live in that I am attached to. 😦 You are blessed to have such a gorgeous place for relaxation.
Thank you so much, Anna!
