Yesterday I found a trail in the woods ... somewhat steep, narrow ... maybe ten feet wide as far down as I could see before it took a bend ... and lined on both sides with Rhododendron at least ten feet tall or taller.
Today I went back, intrigued by how the thought of descending it alone was both intimidating and compelling.
Knowing the area generally, I am certain that at the low point of the trail, there is a stream and it must certainly hold wild Brook Trout!
BUT ... I think it would be unwise to descend the trail by myself ... I considered it but when I checked my cell phone, it said "no service".
I will undoubtedly go back to that trail head and probably limit myself as to how far down below the bend I walk ... I will definitely take pictures and share them here ... but I won't be in the Poconos until after Labor Day, so it won't be until early September.
See you tomorrow.
Words don't suffice, but I'll try - Breathtaking.
Perfect description, Buzz!
Night, dear Buzz and A. Mac! Schlaft gut!
Hey Dowser. I don't go to sleep for another 12 hours.
Oops! I''m headed for the barn, dear friend...

I cannot get the trail out of my mind.
We'll see.
WOW! That's all I can say!
