Walking in the woods

For the first time since May  I went walking  in the Meridian Township Natural Area - Northwest Preserve adjacent to the apartment complex. In May lots of the trails were flooded. Tonight I walked the loop that would normally take me 30 minutes and it took 90 minutes. A number of trees have fallen over the trail and need clearing. I may have to rent a chainsaw. The grassy areas were fairly problematic because  I can't lift my feet properly to  clear it. Luckily I was coordinated enough not to fall into the stinging nettle or  prickly brambles. At least the darkness at the end didn't cause me any problems.
