I even asked the horse to make an appearance again

November is officially here.  Cold, gray, skies and gale force winds.  Before it hit this week, Chris and I had time to get in a hike. 

Just a little scouting expedition prior to the planned hike on Thanksgiving day.  Before dinner.

A little reconnoitering if you will.  So we know when to turn left, when to turn right, and when to proceed straight ahead. 

It's important that an hour hike take just an hour when there is a turkey in the oven at home.   One of us might start to get a wee bit testy if the other one strays from the agreed upon plan.

Rest easy all.  You can count on us.  We got this hike down.   No maps needed.  The route has been committed to memory. 

I even asked the horse to make an appearance again if he can fit it into his schedule.  He is taking it under advisement. 

Onward ho.  Thanksgiving here we come.

Is the hike before dinner to build up an appetite? I love Thanksgiving, all the food goodness just makes me smile and to be grateful for all the blessings in my life.

What are those green ball shaped things on the ground at the base of a tree in the first photo?

Hedge Apples!!! I miss those funny smelling, nubby green globes from my childhood on the plains of Illinois! They aren't too common on the East Coast. I hear they keep spiders away .
