Hiking the Forest Cathedral

 

It seemed safer for the Grandma who was yelling at her little ones to take MeMe for a walk.  We walked out of the hustle bustle of the Campground into silence, dark tree trunks and a thick carpet of ferns in the sunny spots.

Surprised at how tranquility  settles around you in a place like this?

Shouldn’t be; it happens every time.

These are good places to retreat to after a conversation with your credit card security sleuth.

The trees in here are BIG!  There are the large White Pines , the tallest in the Northeast at 183’ many at 150’.
