back from the woods

Posted on | November 9, 2009 | 12 Comments

What a great weekend!  We hiked the Odum Scout Trail, which isn’t very long and is generally rated 5 out of 10 for difficulty, but let me tell you – it was plenty difficult for me!  Considering this was the first time I’ve carried a pack since March, I actually feel pretty good today!

Here’s SB at the start of the trail on Saturday.  There are a couple of nice waterfalls at the beginning of the trail, which is the most scenic part.

Most of the trail looks like this.  Big rocks, little rocks, wobbly rocks.

The weather was beautiful.

Fall wildflowers are blooming (that’s a tall blue aster).

The trail offered a couple of scenic views, but our foliage this year hasn’t had the brilliance of years past.  It was still nice to be up so high with a cool breeze and birds circling overhead.

I called this my roller-coaster tree.  Makes me wonder what caused it to grow in such a fashion.

And – that’s it for the pictures.  We had a wonderful campfire and a lot of fun.  The soreness in my body today makes me glad to be home, but we’re already planning our next trip!

Thanks, everyone, for the anniversary wishes!  We couldn’t have had a better celebration.
