Generalismo

All I have to do is open the pictures and insert them in the post. No more resizing and going through wordpress’s hoops to get them posted!

The mist is often like this in the hills.

Blurry, but more green than I’ve formerly gotten in these kind of shots.

Looking back: Mt. Baldy is to the right, Spencer’s Butte to the left, and Eugene is straight ahead. You can kind of see the city buildings if you imagine hard enough.

Lichen covers a lot of trees. And look how big the trees are compared to the road! There are huge trees out here.

This is now on the way home. That big hump is Mt. Baldy, you can see the little sign with the trail marked on it in the left third of the picture. The mountain doesn’t look very high in pictures! But you need to consider that I’ve been walking uphill on the road for a good two miles, so this is just the very tip of it.

Looking back. You can see the sign that was in the picture before this one. And look at all the lichen!

The trail was verrry muddy.

The path once you get into the trees.

Something to scare hungry wildlife away

Looking out from the path.

The bench at the top, looking out over Eugene. I think all the downed branches are from a windstorm we had a while back.

The walking-only path is the one I’m on, to the right is one that allows mountain bikes. This hill makes me feel wonderful. Toward the end of summer it was a warm golden field against a vivid blue sky. Ahh.

Prints of something. Probably a dog.

Look at how big those trees are! This is at the bottom of the path that leads up to the Mt Baldy trailhead.

I found a nice little bridge on a second part of the trail that I’d never taken before.

The bridge was over a stream with lots of green around.

I don’t always wear this hat! It is a favorite, though

A small spiderweb I found in the dirt. The water droplets were so neat to look at. It’s amazing that the web strands will support that much.

That’s how small it was.
