Splorin'

So today I went out like I wanted to and had a nice little look around. After wondering around in the woods for quite some time with a buddy, we found some old tunnel. It was pretty interesting, and I want to go and see it again. Well, here are some pics from my little escapade.

Well, these first three pics should be linked together in a bit of a panorama. 





 Some old cracked up road we found.
 It was really weird finding this tunnel all the way out here. I'm not really sure what it's purpose was other than to let the water through it. But why would someone put it there? Sadly, I didn't wear boots so I couldn't wade to the other end, but I may go back and get to the other side.
 You can see my friend had the audacity to wade through some of that icy water and stand on some little man-hole thing.

 
For some reason, every picture I seemed to take ended up really bright even though it was a fairly cloudy day. Was actually starting to get dark at that point.

Hopefully next week, I'll be able to get back out there. There was some pretty strange graffiti further down the tunnel. You can see some of it in the first picture. I had a little laugh at the, "I love you Betty" written on the wall.

Let's go on an Adventure

Well, I finally decided to try out a good 'ol blog. I know the odds of people actually reading this aren't that high, but whatever. If anything, maybe I can improve my writing skills through this.

This blog will hopefully be filled with adventuring through the forest and valleys surrounding where I just moved to. I've always loved nature, so maybe I'll find some interesting spot somewhere? Who knows. Tomorrow I plan to set out and explore a little. I've heard word that there are mountain lions still roaming around here. Here's to hoping I don't get eaten alive!
