Another Near Miss….

“Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet.”

-Roger Miller

Another day, another hike, another near miss with the rain. Only this time I didn’t even know it was supposed to rain! Heading out right after work, I decided to do the loop that I did on Sunday, only this time I would go past the connector trail and continue on the Red/Yellow Trail to the finish.

When I was about a half of a mile from the end, I saw this leaf suspended in mid air. At first I was a little freaked out because I couldn’t see anything holding it up. It just kept turning with the slight breeze that was blowing.  Even when you look at the picture, you can’t see anything!!!

As I finished the hike and stretched my legs, I felt the familiar drops of rain as it went from barely raining to pouring in a matter of a couple of minutes. Once again, I got lucky and didn’t get soaked!

    I love it when I happen upon a leaf, such as yours. They sure do have a sense of humor….just hangin’ around, waiting for a human to notice it suspended in mid-air. Then, as we walk away, scratching our heads in bewilderment, the leaf is silently smiling, maybe chuckling, and waiting for the next human to pass by. Silly leaves……
    What a fun post….. thank you
