The bridge at the beginning of the Rock Quarry Trail (2 and one fourth miles)
Chunks of street concrete belie the fact that you are not far from civilization.

| The Rock Quarry |

| Shadows of leaves that reminded me of Asian tapestries. |

| The sight of a sunny path lifts spirits. |

Didn't leave until 12:15 or so, on a sunny, 70 degree Saturday. Dinner obligations stipulated a short hike, but I enjoyed myself. Hike the Rock Quarry Trail and the Trail Among the Trees. On the trails, only saw a couple of couples and a young father with a friendly, talkative little boy wearing a Spider man cap. He showed me leaves as I walked by, and wanted to sit on the bench where I was writing in my journal. It was breezy, and after awhile, my eyes began to itch and nose to get a bit watery, but all in all, a lovely day for a hike. Stopped and took my heart rate a couple of times after climbing hills, but wasn't very out of breath.
