Thanksgiving Day 2020

This Thanksgiving was unique for us. 

Lily and I were home alone. We planed to have a virtual Thanksgiving family get together in late afternoon through a video call. We would not roast turkey this year, discontinued a family tradition, but a 1 pound cornish hen instead.

We went to Lake Ray Robert State Park hiking to celebrate Thanksgiving. We arrived at the park around 10:30am, and went to less popular, but more beautiful, non-paved Equestrian trail.

Nobody was on the trail while we were there. 

We immersed in nature.

    Fallen leaves, dormant trees

    Still lake, flying birds

    Whispering grasses, loving couple 

The tranquility was broken from time to time. 

    Trees' rustling

    Birds' chirping

    Train's whistling

    Feet stepping

We hiked over 7 miles (12 km to be exact), and thoroughly enjoyed this marvelous day and this portion of the park for 3 and half hours!

Thankful!
