Still Walking
We'll pick up our walk where yesterday's post ended, across from the big toboganning hill (and former ski jump) in Harrison Park. On the other side of the trail is a nice view down to the blue waters of the Sydenham river.
The river changes character quite a bit here as the water of the mill pond downstream is backed up to this point, becoming more tranquil.
Ahead, the trail was bordered by a large clump of American Beech as it disappeared into the woods. Many of the saplings here will keep their dry leaves over the winter.
In The meantime, they're a vivid yellow.
We paused for another picture and carried on.
It was a really well-maintained trail, plenty wide and smooth enough for the chariot. A Short distance beyond this we turned around and headed back. We will undoubtedly be back to follow this trail to the end.

You had a beautiful trail to follow. The river does create a great water feature. It is a beautiful day and I am so glad that you are out and about.
ReplyDeleteSo nice that you can out and about and enjoy the trails on you chariot . Loving the pictures.
ReplyDeleteIt's quite a pretty trail to follow, especially with those golden leaves.
ReplyDeletePretty spot, well worth another visit.
ReplyDeleteGreat color on the trees and shadow on the trail.
ReplyDeleteWill look forward to the next time as this time was so lovely.
ReplyDeleteI looked up your area on google - what a great place to take a spin. Autumn in your area is the dream palette - browns, golds, greens, reds.

Very pretty! Our colors have changed too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful place for a walk. Mrs FG has my sympathy - I've spend a lot of time chasing after that particular model of wheelchair!
ReplyDeleteI think it's great many if not most public outdoor nature areas have re-done their pathways and facilities to make them wheelchair accessible. The new way of thinking has come a long way from years ago when wheelchair accessible was hardly even a thought.
ReplyDeleteHello, looks like a great spot for your outing. Beautiful colors and trees. Happy Friday, enjoy your day and weekend!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful trail for you to meander along. We have to Beech trees and it is funny to see the yellow leaves until Spring when they are replaced by the new ones.

Purdy. We're supposed to have some rain here in Tampa today. Already gloomy out there. As long as it clears up quick...I'm going on my first camping trip in fifty years...I'm not intimidated at all.
ReplyDeleteYou are getting some lovely weather and fall is my favorite time of year!
ReplyDeleteNice place for a walk. We have a wheelchair accessible route around Inland Lake here in Powell River. There is a crushed rock trail with bridges and boardwalks. It takes about two hours to make the circuit and there is a hut along the way plus places to get near the water. - Margy
