Love Every Moment, An Introduction

Salado Creek Greenway, Oakwell Trailhead, south

Today's photos:

This was another day when I had to figure out the best time and place to squeeze a relatively short walk into a very tight schedule. As it turned out, the when, late morning, and the where, the Salado Creek Greenway, worked out very well.

It rained the evening before and earlier in the morning, so the creek was flowing just below bank full with a swift, steady current. All of nature seemed to be relieved by the rain after enduring a very dry month of June.

The biggest challenge for me on walks like today's is to break through the distraction of the day and enter into the moment. It is essential in situations like this to love every moment. Today, I was richly rewarded.

This is the first of a two part series. It serves as a mere introduction to what will follow in tomorrow's post.
