Simply Happy

It was another beautiful sunny day and I did not feel like sitting in the library, so I hiked halfway around Little Presque Isle park and then went on some of the inside forest trails.  I love hiking by myself, (don't tell my mom...haha) I take the necessary precautions, and I'm never completely alone on the trail.  But being alone in nature is a feeling that nothing can ever compare to.  It's just you, Gaia and the few creatures that you come across.  You're able to go at your own pace, study the details of nature and converse with it.  Don't get me wrong, hiking and nature loving buddies are awesome, and you can have a gnarly time with them!!  But connecting with nature as one and/or with all are beautiful things.  Nature brings peace.

Glorious Sun King

For a couple months the weather has been really crappy, but on a special day the great sun king decided to rejoice!!  What a beautiful reason to take a lovely mid-day hike!

it was ecstasy feeling the sun's rays on my face
