Thursday

Watched the weather channel. Dangerous weather ahead. We decided to stay here an extra day. Don’t mind a little wind and rain. Don’t want to mess with Midwest hail and tornadoes.

Took a walk. Stumbled across a long-abandoned nature trail.

There were several old shelters like this. Made out of heavy timbers. Maybe railroad ties.

Also stumbled across an interesting plant. Looks vaguely familiar. Nice buds. Didn’t look tended. Probably just another relic from an earlier enterprise.
