Ferncliff Forest Before and After Work

Waking up to the sound of a howling wind gave me the idea to take a short walk at Ferncliff Forest before work.  It would be extremely windy at the top of the tower, but the views were worth it.  Cloudy, but the sky was a lovely dark blue just before sunrise.

After work I met up with Pat.  We walked around some of the other trails in the Forest.  We used an old rock wall to avoid walking through ankle deep mud.  A nice day out.  Although the sky was full of clouds, the views from the tower were gorgeous as usual.  Breathing in the clear, crisp air without any mosquitos reminded myself how I love getting outside this time of year.
