River Walk

Rainy day. Gloomy sky, everything is wet and grey. Rain dripping from the roof, splashing on the bricks below. But yesterday was beautiful, so beautiful we had to take a walk along the river. It's good to get away, into the woods. This time of year with most of the leaves gone, you can see beyond the little place where you're standing, kinda get the big picture. This is the Broad River. They've made a really nice place along here with a trail that follows the river for several miles. In the summer it is a great place to cool off. There are some picnic tables spread out along the river, but you better get there early on a weekend. A lot of people tube down the river, and you might see a kayak or canoe. Our son let me barrow his kayak and that was a lot of fun. I am amazed how easily one can paddle upstream around the rocks and everything. I took my Sweetie down the river once in a canoe. We bounced off a few rocks and now she won't do it again. This time of year it's pretty quiet though.
We did see a couple geese out there, and this fellow was catching a few rays.
