better left unsaid

Any­one who fre­quents this place knows how much I like bridges in the woods and board­walks. Man­made struc­tures sur­rounded by nature fas­ci­nate me. I can’t get enough of how nature takes these struc­tures as an affront and goes to work wel­com­ing them back to a nat­ural state.

The trail to Wards Falls is rid­dled with lit­tle bridges, so this is a great short hike for me. This year I went a lit­tle ear­lier than usual and came upon this bridge that had fallen down in the mid­dle. Just nine months ear­lier it looked like this. One step closer to being reclaimed by the forest.
