There is a large parcel of undeveloped woodland next to our neighborhood. It is easily accessible from our home, and I find myself back there often with Max and Miles. I am not sure who owns this tract of land. There are no private property signs anywhere that I have seen. There are multiple survey roads (or at least what appear to be old survey roads) where the land has been cleared in a road-like fashion at one time but has since begun to become wild once again. There is creek that meanders along a good portion of the property, which is my favorite part of the whole thing. The dogs love it too, especially in the hot sun of the spring, summer, and early fall here. The only real signs of human life that I have come across are an old rock fire ring, and further on down the trail, a hunting blind. Other than that, it seems devoid of anything other than which lives in those woods. It is so peaceful back there; it seems a world away from everyday life and I appreciate its proximity to my home very much.

That brown thing on the leaf is a giant ass spider. |

There is a pretty large tract of land beside our development that has a multitude of what I think are old survey roads. If one is willing to walk through some weeds in certain points, there is a whole world of awesomeness back there. |
