This is a nice stretch for a short hike, which was really all we had time for. The power line gives you the first glimpse (if trail eastbound) of the Flat River.
A little farther, and the river is right below the trail. It was a lovely, sunny day, and the water was a great shade of blue.
The critters are beginning to have spring-like thoughts. There was a pair of mallards. I caught the male in pixels.
Where I was NOT was at the Philadelphia Flower Show. There just wasn't a way I could work out to go this year for a price and time commitment that was reasonable for me. But Marie sent me a couple of pictures.
I'm pretty accepting of and philosophical about the years I can't go to the Flower Show, but it would have been nice. I can conjure up the smell of all that damp earth and fresh greenery.
Total miles hiked in 2024: 135.2 of which 38.2 is North Country Trail.
North Country Trail Lowell, MI. Grindle Rd to Washington Rd. out and back 2.3 miles

Looks like some interesting displays at the flower show. Too bad you couldn't make it this year.
Ann- yeah, I miss it, but I'll live
Lulu: "We would rather go for a walk in the woods than go to the flower show! Because I'm assuming they wouldn't let us roll in the flowers."
Java Bean: "Ayyy, or pee on them!"
