I went day hiking in Daniel Boone National Forest a couple days ago. I was by myself. It was a sojourn.
It is a trip not only into the wilderness but also into myself. It is a chance to renew my spirit.
I was fascinated to find this tiny plant presenting the last flowers of the season. It is a survivor. There have been some light freezes and several frosts but somehow it has persevered. I think these are called Slender Scratchdaisy.
I spent most of my time hiking to this remote overlook.
PS: The haunted tree from my Halloween post was from the same hike.
