Come to Kookies mountain
On a hiking trip. we will capture magic in a video clips
As long as your body, rigor has not yet begun.
when alive I guess is the best time to have your fun
Here a rockwell setting you may view
a scary old man, a Yeti if true
I witnessed this in my short review.
With camera and fuzzy , helper begging for pets and wagging her tail If you give in, she will prevail
Visitors with hope of finding love
The heart broken come in remembrance and prayer
to avoid being alone in their emotion al dispair
The family I imagined might appear on a hallmark card,
One more little one, bringing her up the trail, must kind of be hard.
A mountain biker and running girl speeding up the trail with out a stop pause only to view the sunset when they get to the top.
Balancing on a Slack line,
yoga, stretching you may see
Or a photo session, many times in the old tree.
Birthdays, memorials,
and engagements too
here on top of the world, a beautiful setting for any venue
When the golden hour is near you may see them every where
edge of the cliff
, on blankets or suspended in trees
or hammocks up in the air.
When the sun vanishes out of sight
Wait for the rainbow sky a colorful delight
At twilight's end they will leave for their cars below.
Alone with my pup I will know,
Stuff cameras in the backpack, It is past time to go.
Phone or flashlight needed at the end
come back with friends so we can do it again.
The trail is bumpy and will be dark
If you have a warrant cruisers might be parked
If rain tomorrow, I will edit photo projects that I had begun
on golden skies, I must capture the setting sun
with pups and friends while were young
My hopes and dreams will never be done.
To the end of my days I will follow the sun.
One day un noticed I will be gone
Unwilling and yet one day I must go
When I part, those who remember will know,
the adventures we shared on our mountain plateau
Until my photos are no longer shown
I will be with you, forever always
Never to be gone
This earth trip we don't know how long we will stay
Waiting for the mother ship takes us away
visit us then each year
just gaze past the sun on mid summers day
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

They grow up here and their kids and grand kids come to repeat the ritual.
People move here from other cities and states and some locals will take them there.
With the mount to stand on for the view, this would just be an ordinary park like thousands of others.
Friends, families, people and their pups, couples, weddings, graduations, sports .. a happy place with endless stories.
I thought someone should write a book about Rising Park.
Beginning with the history tracing the events that created it and integrate personal stories.
I remember an old movie "Our Town" ... movies that have clips about the lives of people who live there.
Love stories... how many couples have met and fell in love, got engaged or married here?
No photographer so I asked them if I could take some photos for em. I had a card where people could download pics I took .. no cost.
This couple were having a casual wedding. The fill in flash produced great quality :)
I saw a young guy taking a photo of his wife and baby. Looked to me like the baby was just a couple days old.. maybe just came from the hospital. He was using a phone camera and I asked them if I could do a couple for them, using their phone.
No pic, it was on their phone but somewhere a pic of all of them together exists.
Seeing a new mom n her baby I asked her for a pic. My favorite way to take photos in daylight. Get people in the shade and use fill in flash to bring out color and clear eyes :)
I loved to take pics of people and their pups. Pups make great ambassadors as others want to stop and give them pets, they bring strangers together. Those who otherwise would just pass by unnoticed .
My favorite photographs were sunset photos on top of Mount Pleasant
Using flash to keep faces from becoming silhouettes I got to freeze a moment in time.
Some loved the park so much their families place markers there, buy benches with their names, there are bricks with people's names.
Just before dark one night I saw a light balloon and event going on and I went over and asked if I could take some photos.
It turned out it was people I knew saying their last goodbye
I had been at the park a couple times when the emergency rescue teams were there to help someone who got stuck
Many people are taken there every year from falls.
When taking my Pup to the park one fall they had the streets blocked off.
Drew (an 11 year old girl) and her friend were playing on Mount Pleasant when she fell.
I put some of the details in a blog https://drewffuller.blogspot.com/
There are so many stories that could fill up a book about Rising Park.
Before facebook and digital cameras people came here and took photos.
I'll bet the families of those who donated the land and developed the park would have early photos and information to fill in the history of the park.
Being older, myself I have almost no contact with others. People who are still active that go to Olivedale would have accounts of their adventures here when they were young.
There must also be thousands of old prints in photo albums and drawers.
Because of their chemical base, they fade and become cracked.
While memories are active and there are prints to be scanned, so much history is there to be preserved and published.
Maybe the Rising Family would get involved.
For any visitors who also love the park I created a 'guest book' that they can email photos and fond memories of their visits HERE, they will become public domain.
If you think you might work on a book, I can help research information. If you only have phones to type .. ugh it is not likely...
Some people like to research genealogy but the findings only hold importance to some in their own families.
I think Rising Park is a place of shared affection to most everyone who has ever played there.. hung out with someone they loved ..
In the last few years I have been able to collect lots of photos of those who now climb up the trail, but in our community there are so many parents.. grandparents who have been here with memories and photos of their visits.
I would love to create an archives to preserve such treasures :)
