Buddy
Spent the morning at Iroquois Park with the family for a nature walk. Ran into a very nice and knowledgeable old man named Buddy. He pointed out many plants and bugs and had such a child-like wonder about it all that it was contagious. We’d hear a call from down the path, “Praying Mantis!” And then my kids would call to him, “Monarch caterpillar!” He told us he came there everyday and had probably walked 10,000 miles there in his life.

IroquoisPark
It’s been three weeks since the snow fell, and despite some days in the 60’s, there is still some in the woods on the trails.

Christmas Walk
The woods are so brown at the moment, but looking closer and small, there is green to see.

Deer in the Woods
Left work 15 minutes late then got caught in a 30 minute traffic jam. Worth it for this encounter with a deer in the slanty afternoon light on my weekly hike at Iroquois.

Iroquois Park, Again
Back for another hike at Iroquois, with two of the three kids in tow. A beautiful Fall afternoon. We were there a little earlier and the light was a little brighter. I tried to get a little closer to the leaves this time around.

Summit Field
Dry grasses surrounded by maples, oaks, and beech trees. Not sure about peak color in the trees, but the sky is amazing.

Stone Steps
Stone steps on my favorite trail, view of the bright blue autumn sky where it opens out near the top.

Afternoon Hike
The time change makes a huge difference in the light slanting over the landscape.
