A Walk in the Woods....
Go take a hike.
I'm used to hearing that from people...or at least in my mind it's what I hear them say.
And I'm not talking about going out to get some fresh air :)
Though...that's what we did today.
Go take a hike.
Peaceful.
Quiet.
We walked around the lake, binoculars in hand and had it all to ourselves except for 2 old gents who were hiking with their walking poles.
I wish you could have been there.
To hear the silence of the woods.
The silence of man made noise.
Just us and nature.
The birds flitting around.
Softly crunching on pine needles.
The crickets and cicadas for background noise.
The babbling brook we walked by.
The intoxicating smell of wild grapes fermenting.
I didn't want to leave that spot.
The birds were flitting all around.
A huge hawk flew right past us.
Chickadees and Tufted Titmouse.
Robins and Blue Jays.
Butterflies.
Dragonflies.
Getting excited watching little Sunnys swim by.
Why do we whisper when we are in peaceful surroundings?
We whispered....
Excellent start to the long weekend.
I took a lot of pictures as we sauntered.
Slide show soon.
Keep calm and let go.....
