Summer is upon us - finally!

And, with all the rain we've had recently, the woods are bursting with beautiful, spring greenery.

Being an early morning person, I decided to take a nice long walk in Sorrento before getting into my long list of things to do.  It was absolutely glorious!  The birds were singing in the trees and, as I looked up into the sky, I saw an osprey picking up twigs and building a nest in a dead tree.  I ran into a deer who was feeding along the road.  He stopped munching on the grass and as I stood there we just kept watching each other. It was almost like a game of Chicken - who's gonna bolt first!  LOL!  I finally gave in and let him continue with his breakfast.  It was a wonderful, peaceful walk, a great way to begin my day and only a four mile drive from my house!

So much for my day, but here is an interesting destination to visit!
