Taking Charlie to the Lion's Tale Trail was a spur-of-the-moment decision. I had driven to the recycling center in Edinburg and felt the urge to go to the national forest, which is not far from there. Charlie was in the backseat and I had his leash and water bowl in the car.
I have been to this trail before. It is an easy loop of a half mile, built with children in mind including kids with disabilities. It was sponsored by the Edinburg Lions Club.I blogged about this trail back in 2007. I remembered how level it was, and it wasn't until we started walking that I checked my phone and saw there was no signal. It occurred to me that I had not told anybody where I was going, and the place was totally deserted. I would be in trouble if I broke my ankle or something. Next time I will plan better.
The trail is level and Charlie behaved well. The scenery was pretty.
Gorgeous reflections
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I love the light on those trees.
ReplyDeleteRemember the day when we all walked without cell phones or the like? Let’s not let these things take over our lives.
ReplyDeleteIt’s always been a little risky for a woman to walk alone in a forest, or anyone when bears are around. Now that I’m older, I have to worry about things like stumbling and breaking a bone. Next time I will let someone know where I am going so they know where to send the search party.
