In Unexpexcted Places/#ThursdayDoors

Since I rarely find myself walking among buildings in interesting big cities like our friend Dan , or remember to snap photos when I do, I am often left without new doors to share on Thursday. Still, even when out exploring in nature I come across amazing entrances and natural doorways that I consider worthy submissions. What do you think?

On our most recent adventure in the Chatahoochie River  National Recreation Park area, we enjoyed a beautiful hike along the river and into the surrounding hills. This little Eastern Bluebird was in the entrance field to greet us as we began our hike. It was a total surprise and treasure for me since I thought it was a little robin when I took the photo. Hubby said he saw blue and sure enough….

The trail was amazing. I even got some photos of a hawk that was hunting in the woods but have not edited them completely yet. I consider this part of Winter to be our doorway to Spring and it is pretty magnificent!

 

But, since we need a legitimate ‘door’ for this post I will give you the closest thing I found.

Like something out of Roman mythology support columns under the bridge caught my eye!

Who knows what lurks within the shadows of this doorway?

I loved the effect the perspective gave to the bridge supports, like a pathway to the unknown. Beyond the opening one can imagine anything from Gorgon to hidden city of gold. Or just underground city waterworks operations…

 

I will leave that to your imagination. Mine is already working overtime. 😉 It was a beautiful walk, a wonderful park and someplace we will visit again!

Nature creates such magnificent edifices of stone.

It struck me how much we imitate nature as we build our world.

We kept pace just ahead of a brilliantly setting sun

And watched it slip slowly into the hillside..

 

It was the perfect way to end my working weekend, allowing me to slip into another mindset, to let go of critical thinking and drift on the wind that whistled quietly through the trees….

I can’t wait until next time!

Let it snow

Oh no!

Not again

oh when

will Winter end?

 

 

Let it snow,

Let it go,

I don’t know,

time to chill,

guess I will

wait and see

what will be.

Let it snow,

nowhere to go,

office closed,

I suppose

It could be

good for me.

Let it snow

and fire glow

but heavens no..

Please don’t let

the power go!
