Last week I met up with a friend of mine to go for a walk while we spent some time together. We decided to walk on one of the Discovery Trails in the city as I had not yet walked on its path. I enjoyed walking under the lush green trees with her and listening to the sound of the insects communicating with one another.
During our walk, we came across a few bridges for both cars and trains. On this particular bridge, I noticed that some graffiti and street art had been painted on the walls.
I admired the lettering of some of it; but what I enjoyed seeing even more was the juxtaposition of the man-made steel against the natural green of the trees.
As we passed under the bridge and the reminder that man has encroached on the natural here, I looked forward to walking more on the trail that echoed with the reminder that nature is good for our souls.
My friend and I enjoyed our walk together. Not only did we have a good chat but we also spent some time exercising in a not often visited part of the city.
Do you enjoy walking on nature trails?

Walking with a friend certainly helps you attain more than one goal 😀

It’s good to get out, and especially it’s good to talk with friends, Colline. I’m seriously bad at being confined indoors. Always happy to be out in nature 🙂 🙂

I thought I would be better at it Jo but after being forced to for so long I definitely feel the cabin fever 😀

They are there in your neighbourhood if you take the time to find them.

Great to be able to get out and enjoy nature. There is something very raw about you pictures here .. man made structures intruding on nature.
