Thank you for sharing this walk - I used to love this kind of beauty in the hikes in which my late dh and I used to lose ourselves on nearby horse trails. I can't say I had to hike out in my socks after the goop on the other side of a creek sucked off my boots, because dh retrieved them for me. Any time one of us fell into a creek we were crossing, it was always me - he was so light footed - I don't think Gravity even realized he was on earth at the time - either physically or spiritually.
