Photo journal day 9


I took a much needed day off yesterday and spent time outside. The day started with processing photos and posting the photos for day 8. After I drove out to one of my favorite small towns and grabbed a sandwich that a small deli. Sandwich in hand, I drove to a metro park to eat and go hiking. I followed that up with swimming and eventually cycling, my version of a triathlon haha.

I’m not super product of this batch of photos, but hey some of them are alright.

Tree roots visible on the bank of a river.

I love the exposed roots, there was a log I sat on (out of frame) and took in the view for quite awhile.

A fallen over tree that splits into two.

This was very cool to see in person, the tree splits into two halves.

I’m the bridge troll!

The best type of playground.

A railroad bridge.

According to the historical sign, this railroad bridge was lifted at one point to accommodate steam engines. It’s still in use today by trains transporting grain from one side of the city to another.
