A Walk in the Park


Well, it wasn't meditation, but it certainly was enjoyable. I finally took that trip to MacQueen Forest Preserve this afternoon. It's such an amazing place. It's so quiet there, with only the wind rushing through the trees and the sounds of the occasional falling branch breaking the stillness. It's really quite eerie to be so isolated from the sounds you're so familiar with. No car engines, no tv or radio, no talking. It's just you and the woods. It's so peaceful that you can't help relaxing while you're there. I saw a herd of deer, about 9 or 10, but they were too far away and ran when I saw them, so I wasn't able to get any shots.

Well, we're finally moving the desk out tomorrow. We've been wanting to do it for a while, but life keeps getting in the way. That, and a little procrastination on my part. I really wish I could keep it, but we just don;t have the space. It was nice to have a place for all my stuff. Guess I'll just have to relocate.

Here's the rest of the shots I took today.
