We start with a sign and Locks (of course!) Taking the sign photos and other landmarks gives me a way to remember where we were, as this treks look similar, but definetly not the same. Plus, it's a good tool for at home research.
We step over the center of the gate, intended for this purpose, which for some reason always cracks me up, what with all of the locks and all and head off. The world seems even greener than on Tuesday when we were out.
Past a little bridge, on the dirt trail and up the hill. This area, on this side of the road, is soft rolling hills and big huge sky. Hawks and crows circle, while an unknown bird species darts back and forth.
These paths are designed for mix use, so hiking and bikes. We see one hiker and one lone biker, along with a family of three on their bikes. Other than that, we had the whole place to ourselves. Ya can't get much better than that!
There was lots of last year's mustard plants.
I took a photo of the trails map, which of course didn't really show them well. But, if you're a map lover like me, you can find the one for this area here.
What a great hike this turned out to be, surrounded by sky, hills and Spring!
May you find what feeds you...and eat up!

love that you share what feeds you ...
Liz~ Thanks for coming along. I told J. it's amazing after all these years, it took this pandemic time to get us out exploring all of these close to home places! lol
Just beautiful...I can imagine standing there.
Deb~ It really was. The cool breeze took it to another level! sigh
I love small bridges (some big ones, too!), and those hills...
Hazel~ Me too, all sizes, but little ones hold a certain charm, I think. Yesterday we walked over that bridge.
as always, enjoying your 'giganormous' landscape, today especially as it has started snowing this morning (April 12!)
Saskia~ Snow! Wow!
