Exploring the town

Yesterday I finished with all my school things and random errands earlier than expected.  I decided to go explore my nieghborhood on bike.  I only went about one block before I found this trail:
--This is looking the other direction at the same spot.  I live  close to the Clark Fork River.  It braids up a bunch by my house until it meets the Bitterroot River.  
--The trail followed along the southern braid and it goes all the way to the Bitterroot.
--I didn't know that while I was riding, so I ended up going down a nice country road with a good bike path until I got to Kelly Island.
I saw a bunch of white tail deer there.  In between the braids there are islands that look like oak praries.  There are tons of animals in them and the trails go all over the place.  
--A happy bike...

Dave, congrats on the labyrinths. I hope you get a chance to use them regularly. Thich Nhat Hanh says a walking meditation is an opportunity to practice mindfulness and conscious breathing while we move. Enjoying a fresh breath with each step, we massage the earth with our feet, uniting body and mind. I would also add it's an opportunity to realize your interconnectedness with the elements. Namaste, Michele
