Friday morning was a quick and early run--at 4;30 am as I had to be at work early. Nice to run in the dark again...seems less painful if one has to run so early, that it is dark and cocoon like some how.
Saturday was also not too long, but a nice challenge up Tank Hill. We have been experiencing some unusually humid weather here this year and Saturday morning was particularly misty and moist. The spiderwebs on the ground level were like little saucers full of milk...beautiful little dishes on the ice plants and scattered about the yards and fields. It was so warm and muggy that as I got to the top I was really sweating...the climb up was a great visual with the mist resting in the valleys and hiding in front of and behind the ridge tops...made for a great Misty Mountain Hop.
As I crested and came down the goat trail the brush was really damp and I am bushwhacking my way down, cleaning all the dew and pollen of the bushes...my plain ol' gray sweats were paint light green and soaking wet. The spiderwebs hung vertically along the path that are usually invisible to the eye of the enthusiastic trail runner, were glistening like church windows. Really nice sights on a Misty Mountain Hop.
