A Walk in the Woods

Fine Autumn Day

The weather is spectacular. Absolutely perfect for the middle of autumn. About 50 degrees and sunny. I took the dogs for a hike in the woods behind the house along the logging roads. They stayed with me for most of the walk, then decided to strike off on their own. I guess I'm just too slow for them.

I am happy to note that we didn't see any people or any other living thing for that matter. I suppose the wildlife ran for cover when they heard us crashing through the leaves. I love the fact that we are far enough from civilization to actually experience solitude. Unfortunately I did see signs of human activity--trash. Seems like the humans can't go anywhere or do anything without leaving some of their shit behind. Too bad.

According the the weatherman, we should have excellent weather right on through Thanksgiving. That is something to be grateful for.
