Hiking

COM

My exposed skin bares fresh cut hair, sweat and grass. It's Saturday past. My daughter and I are hiking. We're surrounded by Jewelweed, Timothy Grass and trees. The sound of a train is approaching. I snap a picture of the iron horse.

I hear a four wheeler riding through the tobacco field while I'm crossing the railroad bridge one railroad tie at a time. It's scary looking down between the gaps to the murky water below.

I see a turkey vulture circling above my head and can't help but watch her graceful flight. She doesn't seem bothered by the noise my daughter is making with two rusted objects. I'm in awe of her determination to bring home a momento of our day but sadly she has to leave it behind.
