My love, @kelsnm, being natural

Started at the Old Dam at the Northeastern side of the forest property and walked about 3/4 miles to the end of the short trail, following the Angelica Creek upstream the whole way, This same stream flows by the bottom of my neighborhood as well as gaining more flow from additional tributaries.

Biting gnats were a pesky problem today, unlike yesterday with the nice breeze. But the calmer, still air inside the dense evergreen forest, well below the canopy there is no wind to blow the buggers away. But we made it quick anyways since @kelsnm had to head off to her job.

:[ Hate when she has to leave me.

I love her so.

Also praying for Susan and her health.

Nolde Forest has an educational program for learning about the history and nature of the forest

Nothing of interest inside.

Reminds me of scenes from Lord of the Rings

From the Fellowship of the Ring, in the beginning the opening scenes of being in the shire. This place reminds me of the shire.
