This post if for Wednesday walk challenge And Make me Smile Collaboration challenge, initially our collaboration was once a month but due to the popularity of it we have decided to make the collab a weekly thing :)
Any questions about the challenge read the guide at the Bottom of the post ;)
For this weeks post I am sharing another visit to Buttonwood park here in New Bedford, and from the first phot you can see something was going on it the park.
I knew what it was as I had been sent a link to the event and thats why I swung back by the park

The Event was called Coffee in the Dell and was hosted by The Friends of Buttonwood Park, a non profit group of people who put a lot of time and effort into keeping the park beautiful, from what I understand they look after a lot of the garden areas in the park and do clean up events and the like, all are volunteers and do it out of the goodness of their hearts

Now you may be wondering why I shared three photos of the group, as I mentioned the head of the group and I have come in contact on Farcebook and he likes the photos I share of the park and so he let me know about the event, so I swung by with the plan of meeting him and maybe some other members of the group.

Which I pretty much failed at but I did see the guy who had invited me off to the side at one stage from his farcebook photo and did pop over and say hi to him, very briefly and then wondered off again and didn't talk to any of the other members Ohh well my wife was surprised I even talked to Richard, so I did better than I have in the past in similar situations maybe next time I will do better

This week I am sending to the following who joined Wednesday Walk, for this week I did a random draw and the following each received some Hive 
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.
