Easy Day of Hiking

Today (Sunday) was a day to just relax for a while and catch up on a few things.  When the work was done, I went for a bit of a hike around the pond on the RV property.  Nice trail.  This is looking across the pond back to our RV park.

A nice little creek running down the stone.  The rock is all shale, and lying in pieces everywhere.

After lunch we decided to do the Green Point coastal trail.  They have discovered these layers of rock along the coast that hold a world geological benchmark between 2 periods of time not located anywhere else (I think I have that right).  This is up close.    Tectonic action has turned the layers of rock on its side.

And this is from up top.

This was taken from on top of the cliff.  Hard to see the depth from up top, but this goes on out to sea for a bit.  We could see the waves rolling as it hit the ledge.

Here we are relaxing and enjoying the view.

             

As we strolled along the coast, we came to this bog area covered in trees that are now dead from the weather and wind, I suppose.  Elves could walk through here quite easily.  This went on as far as we could see.

Someone had built a lovely inukshuk.

And this is looking back at where we were before.  The point out to the left is Green Point with the geological rock layers.  The chairs we were sitting on are out there on top.

We ended our day as quietly as it started.  Taking a break from the activity.  We would have a fairly long day of driving on Monday.
