My blog post counter is a little off, but sometime in the last few days I wrote my 400th post. To celebrate, here's a photo of a favorite woodland path. It's not one I've walked often lately because it's part of my "short loop," but looking at it here, the late day sun slanting through the trees, I think I'll find a way to include it more often.
What you don't see in this photo is the dog pulling on his leash, my attempts to hold him and the camera, or the thicket you must plow through to reach this canopied clearing.
What you do see, I hope, is a landscape that asks for understanding and that offers, at least on clear May afternoons, a brief measure of peace.
