Little Things.

It's the little things that count. On Thursday, we made the 13-mile roundtrip from our house to the Mill Creek Horse Trail, all around that, and back home. It was a beautiful hike, and I particularly noticed lots of pretty little things along the trail.

Like a little drop of dew on the leaf of a little sorrel...

... or the little hole in the center of a snail shell's curve.

There was a little Borrigita-style action to be had...

... and a little picnic area with a fine view.

We witnessed a little ride-along (yes, there's two there)...

... and saw a few little groves of deciduous trees among the conifers.

There were little trees using the stumps of trees past to get a leg up...

... and little striped fungi growing on downed branches.

This tree appeared to be showing a little leg...

... and the little curve in the path as it wound through the trees was quite perfect.

There was a little vibrant green plant growing out of big red stump...

... and finally, as we neared our home, a little bit of fog on the ocean shore in the distance.

And here's a little video to show you what it's like hiking through the redwoods:

Until next time!

    1. Thanks! That dewdrop on the sorrel shot took me like 20 tries to get it focused just right! But anyway, I looked at enough of your pictures to get an idea of what looked good. ;)
