In some ways this post is the opposite of my usual posts. For starters, I usually write about biking and bike trails. This post is about a cross-country ski outing. And most of my blog posts talk about trails I travel around the country to ride. This one is about a trail just outside my back door. And speaking of trails, I usually stick to the beaten path, but on this day, I chose to wander where my skis led me. And as a result, I got to see some beautiful scenery, including this owl WHO waited patiently while I fumbled around in my winter jacket to get my camera out. It took me forever to locate him in the viewfinder, since he was so well camouflaged against the tree. I guess my point here is, sometimes it's better to try new adventures and ways of doing things. In so doing, you experience life's little surprises. Don't get caught in a rut. Go new places, see new things, eat new foods, meet new people and above all, experience the world and live a full life. Have a Merry Christmas and I hope to hear from you in the new year.
