Fellow Hikers
The first pic is a grandpa (Chuck) and his two grandkids. Chuck is sharing his passion for the trail. Friendly open folk.
In the second pic is someone playing a ukelele? Yes. He packed it on the trail to teach himself to play. Added a different dimension to a couple evenings we saw him.
Bird Nest + Another Flower
This bird nest looked like an paper mache', mixed media art project.
And this flower always looks alittle like a spider (no matter what kind of mood I've been in when I see them)
Have we mentioned how many daddy long legs we're seeing? They are alot of fun.
Two More Floral Stand Outs
The white are Indian Pipe or Ghost Plants - flowers without chlorophyll. Don't they look like they belong in the world of faieries?
The violet MAY be Lady Slippers - still investigating. Any ideas?
Trail Trees and Rocks Are Like Clouds
You can see all kinds of things in a tree or cloud. And like clouds and inkblots, your mood can determine what you see...dogs scratching their back on the ground, reptiles, spiders. For one pic Buck saw a schnauzer. I saw a bunny. Can you see Mr. Redbuck hiding behind the adjacent tree?
Again the pics can't capture the vivid colors and textures of the trees and rocks.
