the road ahead

We’ve all been on such a road, it goes somewhere, but we don’t know where. It is not open to traffic, you want to see what is at the end, you have to hoof it (walk) or bicycle. Fortunately for me, a young man and his charge came along on bikes, because my feet were draggin.. I flagged him down, did he know this road, and yes he did. “how far do I have to go till I reach the end?” “See up ahead, around the curve?”

he pointed up to where the above road barriers were .. you can just make them out in the first picture.

“When you get to the bend, the road will change from pavement to gravel, you will be about half way” Wow, I was going to be late for my 10:30 – 11 a.m appointment, I would have to turn back. No way could I manage to do the whole walk and get back in time.. besides my legs were telling me I’d already been doing enough walking for the day.

obviously at one time, this was a well travelled road. but no more. It is all part of the NCC green space now.

you can see remnants of old fences now.. once all the growth starts to happen, this may not be so visible.

As I walked back to my car, I wondered how it must have been, likely there had been animals out in the pastures that are now slowly being over taken with vegetation again. I saw a lot of creeks and water beds.. it will be fun to explore on another day.

This area, where the blocked off road is, is not the part of Dewberry where most of the hiking, snowshoeing, X-cross country is done. But I’m told the rewards are worth the walk, especially in another few weeks when there will be flowers a lot of interesting vegetation at another observation deck that has been built out over the water.. Trick is you got to get there, and it is a hike. Hiking through the trails is walking on trampled earth, the terrain is very different, this walk along the road, is just that.. you are walking on a paved road. I’ll tell you about the unpaved part when I actually get to do it.

Thanks for sharing this part of the journey with me.

We are all wonderful in our own way… Although results are important, your effort is what is truly precious.

he was a long way from me.. but I did manage to get a picture before he took off on me.

12th.

Does each branch tell a story, did someone come along and place another walking stick with the others. Questions that came to mind while I wandered the other day. I myself will pick up a branch to walk along with when I feel like I might wander a bit off the well worn paths. So many thoughts go through my mind when I am exploring a new path, sometimes it is one I’ve been on before .. but.. it is never the same… Where the sun is in the sky, or if a cloud passes by, all contribute to the shadows and shade that play on the textures of the trees, fauna and bark.

Hmmm should it rain or should it not – is that the question of the day? Sky was overcast, dull and gray.. yay that rhymes with day… let me see, not being very productive here. If it is not raining than I should go for my walk before I need to attend to “business”…

Reminder, today”s calendar..

Let’s begin today with a smile. Let’s start the day with a positive outlook, looking forward to what we can discover.

When we hesitate, it is only because we need to give ourselves a gentle push. – good morning to everyone who is just starting the day, such as myself, if you are already well into your day.. I hope it has been a wonderful day for you so far. Stay positive and stay safe.

This was my only walking pal with me yesterday when I walked.

wood fun

this is a fun piece I would love to have in my backyard

Knowing church was at 10, I made my way to the woodlands earlier.. I got there as the cleaning crew was leaving.. had the place all to myself. Still a little early but I did manage some photos.

how much wood can a woodchuck wood, if a woodchuck could chuck wood

Let’s begin today with a smile. Let’s start the day with a positive outlook, looking forward to what we can discover.

Sarsaparilla Trail

See why I treasure my photographer friends.. I was at Sarsaparilla Trail this morning, this is where I had my wonderful morning walk. This is where I met Num months back when he graciously gave me permissions to use some of his photos.. I really admire these photographers who in the middle of all the wonderful wonders that abound in the woodlands, they can find and capture such wonderful pictures. Doesn’t this little guy have the cutest face! thank you Num!!

I’m like the hound dog, nose to the ground, keen and wide eyed with anticipation of the hidden mysteries from beyond =^_^=

It is our differences that make us unique individuals, and allow for the wonderful panorama of sights and sounds that we can feast on in our daily living. Celebrate the journey… Enjoy life as it is presented to you. Always there is a lesson to be learned.

The past leads to now and now leads to the future. Life is an accumulation of moments! Cherish each one

look up

I had an idea . I lay on the bench and took a picture of the sky over my head

it was so peaceful and quiet. Taking pictures while on my back wasn’t fun though.. so i sat up for this last one, the direction from whence I’d come.

You can see, the signs of fresh minty green as the plants take in the longer days of sunshine and the balmier weather.

For the sale of others, society, and world peace. Always live keeping in mind everything you do is for the sake of others, society and world peace.

beep beep

this is our turf lady, move out of the way

I don’t usually leave my shadow in the picture, but.. I wanted you to see how close these ducks were to me.. they came up from behind me.. I moved over to let them by, then followed till I had to pick up the pace. They were in no hurry.

next came these two buddies.. strolling along like they had all day .. which of course they do…

My first visit to Mud Lake… light bulb moment.. if you walk into the woods, and walk for over an hour one way, guess what.. it is going to be the same amount of time coming back. A short walk becomes. a “good” hike.. Going out it is all new, you re snapping pictures and just soaking it all in. Coming back, the mantra is.. coffee, coffee.. and gosh it’s hot.. gotta find a way to carry the vest and roll up the sleeves. Beep beep, out of the way, this gal wants to get to her car and her ice coffee!

Each moment is a turning point. Postamo-nos sempre na bifurcaao entre o bem e o mal. Siemppre esdtamos ante la bifurcacion del bien y del mal.

strolling

Early morning stroll through the woods was amazingly peaceful. I saw another ermine, many squirrels, chipmunks, and I can’t swear to what it was, but it was an animal, bigger than a squirrel, black, sleek with white streaked by me through the thickets, under a raised foot path, and into an area of brush. Because it was a rich black satin and there was a lot of white, I thought of a skunk, but.. skunks I’ve seen in the past, waddle, and have girth, this animal was sleek. What few people I did see were off in the distance, on another trail. Any ideas? It was fast and ran like the ermine does.. a graceful leaping action.

The weather forecasters are calling for even higher temperatures over the next couple of days. There was little to no snow in the woods, with the ongoing balmy weather, we should be seeing a lot of new growth soon. I’ve almost depleted my sunflower seeds.. I left the squirrel to his breakfast, the supply will simply disappear by next visit.

Tell yourself “things happen” Even if something is inconvenient, once you accept it you’ll be able to move onto the next step.

Canada Geese

What can I say, I went out without a camera, the Nikon and the Canon were left hanging on their hooks… never even entered my mind to have them with me. Then I found myself alone in the sun with two Canada Geese who were happy to spend time with me preening and dining. I got to see the underside of the bird as it dived down to forage from the lake bed. No camera and none of my photographer friends in sight. Thankfully I had my cell (Samsung) so I did manage a couple of pictures, and I took a couple of videos.. however, I have no idea how to transfer them from the phone to my PC… eventually.. I’ll get there. =^_^=

An hour on my own with them before other humans came along, and they took flight. There is something to be said about experiencing the “wild” and the natural “harmonies” that abound in nature with out the jarring sounds that humans and their “toys” make.

You’re happy. I’m happy. Have the mindset of “good for you, good for me” Express yourself in a way that makes others happy.

vastness – life

I was walking away from the PC, out of my office when I saw Shirley’s lastest post, she and her husband are on a road trip .. and these are a couple of pictures she shared. Living in a city like I do, a big enough city, but a city non-the-less, I would love to be able to stand by the water’s edge and look out across a vast expanse of not empty space, but not city streets, high rises and the like. instead, water, hills, open skies.

The reality is, I have been by the ocean many times, both on the east coast and west coasts of both Canada and the USA. I have known that experience, that exhilaration of looking out into “forever” .. hearing the waves rolling/crashing in. I’ve stood high on the cliffs in CA. looking down at otters playing and basking in the sun… I’ve skated the boardwalks in Venice, CA, walked the sandy beaches along the coast in Florida. that was then, not now.. and I miss it. I’ve even experienced a salmon fishing boat off the harbour in Vancouver, BC. and must not forget the smell of fish and fresh lobster when I lived in Nova Scotia.

I was going to push these feelings aside .. then realized that it is part of life, my life.,, her pictures reminded me of other moments in my life, and for a moment I felt a tug at the heart strings.

It’s OK. to remember, and its OK, to want to relive those moments, of course we can’t, BUT the memories are good, and they sure were moments well lived.

I want never to forget all the blessings in my life.

but.. it’s Tuesday

Don’t think “I Can’t” from the start. Begin by taking the first step, then you’ll be able to see what comes next and a path will open .
