By noon I'd grown weary of looking at a computer screen. The blue sky and the pleasant temperatures beckoned me outside. I decided to go to Village Creek Natural Historic Area Park to commune with nature and consult my travel guide book regarding my upcoming trip to South America.
This time of year for some reason the sun causes the leaves in the trees to glow like they are green light bulbs.
Where you see me sitting on a picnic table, reading, in the top photo, behind me, what you can't see, is a big pond. In that pond
are a lot of turtles. And snakes. Idon't like sitting with my back to the snakes. There were a lot of frisky squirrels making a racket and making me a bit jumpy. Snakes make no noise when they slither up to you. At least I assume that to be the case. I've never actually had an incident where a snake slithered up to me.
A paved trail meanders through Village Creek Natural Historic Area. It crosses Village Creek in 2 places. Walking the Village Creek trail is very peaceful. For most of it you are under a tree canopy that is sort of jungle-like. River
Legacy Park can be like that in places, too, but there are a lot more people at River Legacy. Village Creek is way more relaxing.And you have all those Village Creek Indian spirits infusing their old homelands with some special voo-doo energy.
