Hiking

Needing a day to clear my head and get some fresh air, we headed toward Snowcamp, NC.

Cane Creek Mountain in Alamance County was the perfect hike.

2.5 mile loop up some moderate inclines, creek side views, ample ferns and hardwoods.

Tall roadside grasses

Line the gold fields, harvest time

Leafy green corn, cut.

Art Prescription: On my drive to see Finn I pass Mapleview Farm. This time of year the fields of corn are being harvested. The once leafy green field is now rows and rows of orange dirt.

Cows

What a sweet hello

Sweet cow, do you have a treat?

In a field with goats.

Art Prescription: I love my drive to see Finn. Lots of rolling farm country and animals.

Seasons

Steady cicadas

Whirl and grind in the woodlands

Goldfinches seek seed.

Art Prescription: goldfinches nest and brood late when lots of seed heads are available.

So don’t dead-head your cone flowers, coz these bright yellow goldfinches will be feeding like crazy!
