BACK TO SCOTT'S HOUSE

This is a great nature trail through dense forests near the campground
Tuesday, July 21

I just counted up! I left Scott's house for Vancouver Island on May 20th. It has been 62 days of awesome adventure and new friends since then but it will be good to be back in familiar surroundings again even though it isn't my own bed.

Thunder Woods Nature Trail

Sometimes it seems I have to learn the same lesson over and over. There is a wonderful trail nearby the campground. It's not long but it is through a marvelous old growth forest area that has been disturbed very little.
I would have enjoyed it even more if I had had my regular glasses with me. It was so dense that there really wasn't enough sunlight for me to see well with the sunglasses. I also didn't take any water which is always dumb!

This is so different than the California Parks. I can?t believe how quiet it is even during the day. There are people around but the forest must absorb much of the sound.
