My son and I decided to take the dogs to a seasonal creek and with all this rain we were sure there would be water, and we were not disappointed. (those photos will be in a post titled, “Swimming is for the Dogs!”, coming soon)
This was a great place to get a bit of exercise and have lunch.
We started off by stopping at a local Italian place and ordered sandwiches to go. I got a meatball, while my son ordered an eggplant one.
The hike was level, for the most part. The temperature around 63 degrees, sunny, nice clouds and around 3 miles.
Here is the hike there, with all the things I thought photo worthy. Come join me.
#1 Flowers!
#2 The trail head.
#3 This was a huge Maple Tree.
#4 This tree is alive, both sides.
#5 A bit closer.
#6 Speaking of old and new. I lichen this.
#7 Closer and different angle.
#8 Coyote marking the trail with their claws.
#9 Red grass
#10 More of that red grass
There was also some brownish red flowers in bloom, they might look dried, but they were growing and soft to the touch. Can you see them on the left?
Luna (the black dog) is waiting for me, the wolf dog is already splashing up ahead. They love to swim. Time to put away the camera and find a place to picnic. I hope you enjoyed this little hike, and make sure to look for the creek pictures coming soon.
Have a great Wacky WEdneSdaY!
Gorgeous with the yellow and green!
I used that preset vivid button, then turned the exposure way down. Thank you Carol.
