Autumn Hike - Ryan Park

On one recent sunny day this past Autumn, took a long slow walk in the Ryan Park area near Gardens at Waters East.  It is a nature preserve about five miles from the gardens.  As you will see;  lots of beautiful trees, trails, hills, leaves of color and birds migrating as the season changes.  Nice way to spend an afternoon.

You are welcome to come along.
