My friend and I decided to head out for a couple hours today hoping to find some trails to walk on. We knew of a few just five minutes away from campus but weren't sure which ones/how it would work. But we ended up finding them and walking down each trail. It was a beautiful sunny day, after a stormy night.
The greens are that fresh new bright green just popping out from their buds. We also got to see tons of wildlife - none of which I have photos of because they slithered or jumped away to quickly. We spotted numerous snakes - two of which were basking together right next to the trail. Thankfully they quickly slithered away. I also saw several baby ones (about 2-3 inches long - so tiny!). Lots of bees and butterflies. And several lizards.
We also came upon an old dam and enjoyed some time by the rushing river.
It was a glorious day to spend outdoors in quiet nature. Before this afternoon, I didn't know there was such a beautiful place to go so nearby. I'll definitely be going back. There are so many places around us that are waiting to be discovered.
