After Kate went in to work I took a drive to one of the parks nearby. I drove to Grant Park and pulled off the road to hop on this trail that runs parallel to Lake Michigan. The forest and its ceiling remind me of being in the woods near Princeton. I haven't seen a forest like this since I left New Jersey, maybe a bit in England but it wasn't this green in winter. I walked around for a bit snapping a few pictures and meandering my way down to the water a few times. Maybe by uploading some photos I can give you an image of what life in Milwaukee looks like. An apartment walk through, courtesy of YouTube, should be up in the next week. Okay. Back to the forest...
Some sun sneaks through the canopy.
There are paths leading to cliffs and beaches all along the walk.
It is hard for me to believe that is a lake. It could be the Pacific minus salt and big waves.
*Thanks to Bill Bryson. I borrowed the title of a book of his for this post. It is a great one.
