Very Dear Trails – and a Deer

Below is a slideshow of some scenes from this morning’s sunrise walk in the Denison Pequotsepos Nature Preserve. We feel so fortunate to have this fairyland of nature within a few blocks of our home, and on this almost frosty morning we followed the trails with a feeling of warm, light-hearted liberty. I think we both loved the look of the early light on the colorful trees, and on my trail (we took different trails today) I was lucky to see a deer browsing and occasionally staring at me. Meeting back at the car, our greetings and smiles showed how thankful we felt for this brief but wonderful and refreshing adventure.
