I stumbled upon the Ledyard Up-Down Sawmill website this morning and thought I would share it here along with a few photos I shot this week. For the record, the Ledyard Up-Down Sawmill is owned by the town of Ledyard, CT and is administered by the Ledyard Historic District Commission.

There are no prettier sunsets this time of year than at Erickson Park at Mill Cove in Gales Ferry. I shot this one with my cheapie Kodak camera. Not bad from the window of my car.
While Southeastern CT dealt with record breaking rain that caused flooded basements, bridge collapses, and road closures, a few Ledyard folks made lemons out of lemonade. Below are photos taken at the Ledyard Middle School ball field.

The little prank above caused Ledyard Parks and Recreation to post this sign.
The Ledyard Parks and Recreation Commission has two openings. The Commission meets every fourth Tuesday of the Month. I started my service to the community on the Parks and Recreation Commission over 25 years ago and have some fun memories of my time spent there. The commission is very non-political and with Director Don Grise as a guide, provides an outstanding service to the Town of Ledyard. If you are interested in serving, you may pick up an application at the Town Council office, located in the Ledyard Town Hall Annex.
Built in 2007, the Highlands Lake Pavilion was dedicated to long time Parks and Recreation volunteer Jane Perry.
Colonel Ledyard Park has been called Ledyard’s best kept secret. It offers a great pavillion, ball fields, playground, tennis courts and a hiking trial. It is tucked away in a forest like setting off Colonel Ledyard Highway. And yes, there are plenty of rocks!
