It’s been over a month since I’ve been on the hiking trails! Life can get busy at times, and I forget to stop, take a deep breath and listen to the quiet in the woods.
It always feels good to step away from the computer, get some exercise and breath in the fresh air. Often times, I end up doing a little treasure hunt, looking for a variety of colors, shapes, textures and patterns.
It was just the mental pick-me-up I needed for a Monday afternoon! Happy hiking!

Hi Terri
What bush/plant do the purple and green leaves belong to? They are rather spectacular! Janine
They are cool leaves, aren’t they! I’m not quite sure what that plant is since it’s growing wild in the woods. It might be a wild ginseng.
