Today was a three-part trip. We started off at Zoar, at Canal Lands Park. Lucky for us, the rain had begun as we were pulling into the parking lot. We waited for about fifteen minutes until the rain subsided. As we were getting our gear ready to go out on the trail. a young woman and an Italian Greyhound came running from the trail to the parking lot. They had been caught in the rain and were soaked. We gave them some paper towels, and set out to explore the very wet, very green trail. The differences from our fist time here in January were stunning, but even since we had been here in March, it was so completely different. The bridge that we could see for quite awhile as we approached it, was not nearly obscured by greenery until we were almost on top of it. We climbed the stairs to the bridge, from where we could look down on the puddle-riddled trail below. We heard and then saw a Baltimore Oriole singing in a sycamore tree above the bridge.
