"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves." -John Muir
Jörg & I ventured back to Castle in the Clouds today to hike the trails and find a few waterfalls. Of course being the photo junkie that I am I had to bring along Miss Canon. It was a beautiful hike, granted the trails weren't exactly Hiking for Dummies certified. Lack of signage led to an actual hunt for the waterfalls, but a bazillion mosquito bites later we found what we were looking for, Fall of Song. The 50 foot falls is the largest on the Castle property. Jörg also spotted a gorgeous bird, what I believe to be a Scarlett Tanager.
It made my heart happy to be out in the woods today. I hope to take advantage of the many beautiful places that the New Hampshire nature has to offer this season.
