Pretty Green Vine

 

Adventure Location:

Decatur, Alabama

Date: May 10, 2024

We headed out on a nice walk on the back trail out from the campground. The lighting was pretty dim but at one spot the leaves let a nice shaft of light beam down to the trail. Right next to the trail was this vine in the beam of light just waiting to grab the OFM when he went past.



It made such a pretty scene that we just had to get a picture and bring it to all our readers to enjoy. We thought it was neat anyway.



Onward on the trail we turned onto the paved road around the golf course to try it out as a loop back to the Castle. That total loop would be just over 2.75 miles of paved walking. We made it just fine but did decide it was time to start carrying some drinking water with us. Along the way we got a nice view of a bench area on the creek side trail with a good bit of the flood water still in residence.



From there it was nice walking all the way back to the Castle and a very welcome drink of water.

And for fun in the afternoon we started a new coloring.



The coloring is looking like it might be a bit difficult with all the fading of hues into other hues. It will definitely be fun to learn all about that technique to use in other colorings also. We will be excited to hear what others think of the coloring when it is finished some day.

We hope everyone dreams nice dreams tonight and wakes up ready for trying to have tooooo much fun in the morning.

  1. Wise to carry water anytime you go for a walk. Even during the winter in the desert.
    Soon we'll be begging for rain.
    Looks like the Vine could work as one of your freehand pictures, while having tooooo much fun.
    Be Safe and Enjoy!

    It's about time.

    1. Always take water to drink in any desert hike is my policy. Some of the routes here at this park have a drinking fountain along the route so I use them.
