A different day, a different way...

I got home from school today and went a different way for my run today. I took my camera along (yes, I ran with a camera) so that you all can see more of my area. At some point you'll probably have a pretty good idea of the 'hood (I still have to go another way to show you all the farming around me). But this was a nice little run that takes us across the street (State route 116) to a bit MORE rural area. Oh well, I guess it shows you HOW rural the area is. This is a great time of year...sure, it is a bit humid/muggy, but with all the storms it is so green. I actually love it with gray skies and the green everywhere!

















I didn't think about this until I got home, so the view isn't EXACT, but this is the comparison of a typical view of New England in the summer...one in the sun and one in the clouds. Both are pretty, but I vote for the dark/stormy version! It brings out the green.







I don't know if I've shared this before, but these signs are everywhere (this street I'm on is a one and a half lane road). Some signs aren't this nice though. I think some of them have been up for decades.

A pretty, wet forest in the middle of my run.

YUMMM! What's for dinner? Fungus? Yes, but it is fresh from the forest floor...it is natural and organic! Really yummy! :)












This is the picture that started it all (I actually wanted to get this picture and I didn't want to take my camera home before I went for my run, so I just ran with my camera. Silly, I know.) This tree was a victim from the storm last week, but it was uprooted. The tree doctors came a few days ago and chopped it up and seem to have pushed the stump back almost upright (weird). But I thought the stump was pretty, and that is what started the whole photo show ;)!
