My walk at the Noland Trail by Chelsea Gilbert

During class we went on a trip to the Noland Trail. This was exciting for me because I love going outdoors and seeing nature in its true beauty. Throughout this visit I was able to experience several different emotions by viewing the natural setting around me. I felt relaxed and at peace while looking at the water. It flowed perfectly and had this aura about it that made you feel happy that you were there and could see such beauty. The trees were individually different in their own way. There were some that were shaped larger and curved, or some that were very skinny. It was also cool how at each bridge you crossed, you saw another one almost directly across from it. In this journey, I also saw evidence of the trail being a popular place for other people. On the benches throughout the trail, there were initials carved into the wood, different phrases, and other traces of human interaction. The people who were traveling on this trail while I was there were very friendly and polite, which made it more obvious of the beauty and simplicity that nature can hold.
