Take a hike

by chuckofish

Winter is closing in here and the only outdoor activity I’m likely to get is raking leaves. Today I was in the mood for a hike, but had to settle for looking at pictures of past glories. I love wide open spaces. It’s one of the things (besides thunder storms) I miss most about the Midwest. Here we have trees and mountains, which are nice enough, but I do like a vista. I don’t get home to Missouri as much as I’d like, but I have found solace (and wide open spaces) on Dartmoor in Devon.

A tor on Dartmoor

Dartmoor has very cool rock formations…

Here are my “men against the sky” who enjoy climbing around. I prefer to keep my feet on the ground (and take pictures).

Picture me huffing, puffing, and occasionally complaining on the way up. The view and fresh air are worth it though.
