While walking this morning, down my road, I noticed a trail I had never been down only about 100 yds from my property. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2012.jpg) I had seen children go down this trail last year, but I had never follwed it. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2003.jpg) In spite of the drought, this area seemed moist and cool, with plenty of mosquitos. I figured there must be a swamp nearby. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2004.jpg) The trail meandered for about a quarter mile. I know this will all be developed soon because the property is for sale. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2005.jpg) I came to a little clearing. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2006.jpg) Was this buzzard an omen? ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2009.jpg)

Then I came to this swamp, filled with wild ferns. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2013.jpg) I am glad I got off the road for my walk today. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2016.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/May2014.jpg)

Hah! Sorry, Dan, no high adventure. There were rabbits, squirrels, cardinals, and one pretty rooster, but I failed to photograph them. Just a little morning walk that went to some place new. Pretty boring to many, I'm sure, but it made me feel good and I felt that maybe those trapped in cities might enjoy it.

After these past days a getting my a-- kicked at work it is a true delight to view yours and Andy's photos! Thank you again Vic!!!!  P.S. My wife would have loved the rabbits.

Thanks.

When he said he saw kids going down there, I expected him to stumble onto some beer cans and trash. I guess those kids are being good.
