Fall Walk through the Woods

Today I took a walk through the woods by the Reservoir. I found some trails I hadn't been on before. It was a beautiful day with a slight breeze. It was chillier than past days have been. The sun was shining and it was a cloudless sky. I walked without anyone else or music. I found a lot of fungi, some berry-like plants, and other plants. The fungi was on many sticks on the ground. It also was growing on the shaded parts of some trees. I also saw some squirrels. The leaves were beginning to turn vibrant fall colors. My favorite time of year! It felt nice to be in nature by myself with no other distractions. I think it provides a place to think about things clearly and be at peace.
