Daffodil Trail

.6 miles completed today

64.45 miles completed total

My parents and Aeris decided to join us on Good Friday for the daffodil trail.  It seemed fitting for such a sad day as Good Friday and a great hike for the anticipation of Easter.  It was a rather easy trail with some pretty flowers and it had a pleasant surprise for me which you will see in a moment.

The rest of the daffodils were only at about 20% so I won't picture them here.  They weren't really spectacular yet.  I did see Squawroot for the first time though.  I thought that was spectacular.  It is a parasitic plant that lives off hardwood root systems.  I was very excited to find it.  Now since I found it at Furnace Run I have seen it everywhere.  Isn't that always the way though.  lol  Well here it is.

It will continue to get taller as the season progresses.  Last years growth is still there but it looks dead and black.
Here is the last picture of the day.  Aeris was done cooperating and I was lucky to get her for this even.
