Across the whole 4600 miles of the North Country Trail, hikes and events were held today. Our chapter did about seven miles on the trail that cross the Big Sable River. Here Loren gets the camera set up to take a picture of all of us.
And, here we are... all 15 of us. A good group, lots of new people.
We saw quite a few interesting things. I'm saving a couple of them for another day to really explain them better. Today I'll just concentrate on the river. In the floodplain, the ostrich fern is turning orange and gold. It always looks so pretty in the sun.
Loren and I thought our shadows on the water looked friendly.
It was a great time. Of course now my sleep time is really messed up. Night work, sleep an hour, up all morning, doze off in the afternoon, now I'm awake. Wonder what I'll be like tomorrow? It's an adventure every weekend.

You've got a nice size group and looks like a great day to be out there. Hope you get some sleep time fit in
Good group! It's such a beautiful time of year to celebrate the trail!
Oh, dear! I was trembling for the bridge.
