Hiking pics

[zohdee]

On occasion, I motivate my tubby butt outside for a hike. I always take a camera and usually my pictures are horrid.

I took a couple today that I am really liking.

I fell in love with that tree. The roots have so much character.

Those are really nice pictures. Look like they belong on the front of a card.

Those roots are great...I would make a story about some little gnome who lives in there and only comes out at night.

My grand kids love that stuff!!

I took some others of tree roots with nooks and crannies in them. They are fairy houses. My daughter put some acorns in them

Thanks

We went out again today for a 90 minute hike. My little seven year old was such a trooper, she made it most of the way without complaining.

Here are a couple more pics:

I found that tree interesting. The tree was still living with a huge hole in its trunk.

I wonder what lives in that hole?



I am such the couch potato. I HATE exercise but hiking is fun. So much to see!

Went out today and graduated from trees to fungus!!!

It was a beautiful yet chilly day today.

Like the first one, nice photo

were you brave enough to pick and eat any of them?

Nice pictures! I love all the different fungi you see in the forests. That tree with the hole in it is cool! I would've crawled through that as a kid.

Thanks!!

Milk maid, no, I would never eat them because I HATE eating mushrooms. The only time I did was when I was pregnant with my son and they had to be deep fried.

Next time I go, I am going to take a trash bag. I was sad to see all the garbage people leave. I mean, geez, you carried your cup through the trails, can't you carry it to a trash can? I wanted to spit out my gum yesterday so I picked up an leaf, put my gum in it and then put it in my camera bag for later disposal.

If I ever see someone littering on a trail....OMG, they will get an earful.

Just alot of chipmunks and squirrels. We keep hoping to see bald eagles since they are known to nest there. That would be a great sight!!
