Today, John and I hiked to the left knee of the Sleeping Giant in Hamden CT. We got a bit lost in the woods on the way back, ended up hiking for four hours over steep rocky ground AND, when we got home, being accused by our teenager of being reckless and irresponsible. Is life good or what? The sun was setting as we limped back to our truck. A few stalwart picnickers were still enjoying the late summer evening. Dry Brush put just the right soft touch on the scene.

  3. Isn't it great when the Old Responsible ones get balled out for acting like kids, should be more of it! Didn't they know that you couldn't see the forest for the trees! Great shot too!

  4. Cute story, Bobbie, and probably a welcome chuckle after being lost for a while!

    Nice image. I can almost smell the woods and the campfire.

  5. The sun in the trees is great. I understand all about the teen-aged daughter. It doesn't get any better when they are in their 20's.
