Here's the tree in the clearing and as you can see, there's now corn growing all around it. It was a tad breezy, so the stalks were moving around. It was several shades of green out there.
.
I can't figure out if somebody was out for a walk and suddenly felt a sudden need to defend themselves against vampires. I have to admit, the bugs were really bad and I had forgot to put on repellant. I doubt drawing the line in the sand did the trick, although moving around keeps them at bay. This dirt is really solid so whoever did this worked up a sweat, which is counter-productive...just sayin....
.
Ahh yes, the bugs. I did mention that I forgot the spray and that it had rained the other night. You see this swampy area? They were out in full force right here.
.
Here too, it was time to make a fast dash thanks to the bug bombs. The path here must have been an old farming road at one time as the rocks were obviously laid down by somebody. They are still visible beneath the grass as you walk further up the path. It must have been a lot of work for the original people who worked this land to put them all down.
.
The above photo is a close up of the path. You can see that there are lots of rocks, most of them small, that are now firmly packed into the ground. It is like walking on cobblestones. There's dirt moss and grass growing between them. It's an uneven surface but still very well done. It would have allowed for wheels to move well.
.
Don't let the appearance fool you. The Fraser has some nasty currents.
.
There's a nice assortment of wild flowers growing around you. I have no allergies, so it's not a problem, but there's a lot of cotton wood on the ground and in the air also.
.
I don't think this old barn has too much life left.
