A New Day
Cool and raining here today, unlike England when I was there!
Sunday I had my first long distance, rocky, narrow, steep downhill hike since my return.
Ontario terrain certainly differs from that in East Sussex.
It felt great to be in the woods with all of the trees fully green, unlike before my UK departure.
Along the Niagara Bruce Trail I noticed a tiny, perfect little ‘snail’, whose shell was similar in colour and markings to the much larger Dover snail shell I acquired while at the chalk cliffs.
I picked it up from the pathway where it lay at my feet, realized it was still at ‘home’, and put it in the wooded trees where it will hopefully thrive, or at least live to see a few more days.
When I saw it, an instantaneous smile came to my face, as I thought of my Dad and his ‘new’ sign to me, as well as his sense of humour.
Now when the ‘ladybug’ cannot ’fly’ to find me at my fairly quick pace of 4.5 km/hour, the ‘snail on the trail’ will.
Not a bad post, I’ve retweeted it on twitter for you
No need to thank me!
I am really impressed with your writing skills and also with the layout on your blog. Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Anyway keep up the nice quality writing, it’s rare to see a great blog like this one today..
Terrific, this information is exactly what I was searching for.
Thank you very much for your post! I am very interested in your points.
