Whose woods these are I think I know…

I went for a walk in the Borough Park today and brought my camera.



I stopped at my grandmother's house on my way and took a pic of the apple trees.


An old cistern on the way down into the valley.


In the wintertime, this is the town's most popular sledding hill.


An old pavilion above the creek.


I found these in the woods whilst looking for trillium.  No idea what they are, but I found them to be pretty.


Elk Creek from the twotown trail.


Large pieces of shale build up on an oxbow.


Raccoon tracks in the creekbed.


A peaceful stream winding through the forest.


A small waterfall on the same stream.


Erosion is worse than usual after a hard winter.


A mayapple with a large bud.


A tiny waterfall on Elk Creek.


An old well remains long after the farmhouse is gone.


Don't forget to check out the stuff under the "Reviews" tab!

That's the too-tall guy in the little car accosting Nelson for laughing at him. (on the Simpsons)

Trillium is a relatively rare flower with three leaves and three petals that grows in shady woods in the month of may. I think it was too cold for it this year though. I didn't find any.

I thought Trillium was the name of Zaphod Beetlebrox's girlfriend...
