Back on The Trail

It's been 19 months but finally back on THE trail - the Appalachian Trail :)  Getting back to section hiking, tiny bit by tiny bit, and am now in the roller coaster section somewhere along the border of Loudoun & Clark Counties, VA.

Despite being nearly mid-October, barely a sign of fall in sight - very few leaves have changed color. And not sure if those that have are simply dehydrated.  


Lots of rocks and hills.  Better than a stairmaster!  1,700 feet up and down over my 6 miles.


 Glad to be back.

Beauty & calm in the storm

Revisiting my first set of photos with a digital camera 13 years ago.  When the world's gone mad and is being mean, it's comforting to know there can be beauty and kindness and calm even in a storm.  This beauty of a storm was at White Sands National Monument August 2006.
