Au Naturel

The weather was nice yesterday, so I went out for a walk in the "woods." It's really just a reasonably large park, but the place was large enough, and the foliage dense enough, that you could spend a good deal of time in places that seemed reasonably natural. Or would have, were it not for the broad, groomed trails and the fact that every tree that fell in proximity to one of the trails had been chainsawed into small sections.

But, for all of the artificial naturalism, it was a nice break from the reminders of what we fondly term the rat race. Even if it was someone else's rat race.
